Cole spotted this one in the weeds yesterday during the recovery of the Tolly and couldn't leave without it. I think it is a Hydrocycle, but seems to be of a different design than the others I have seen. The front is quite a bit more rounded and your feet go in the middle like a scooter. Anyway, he is happy as can be and ready to start sanding. Here is a picture of his, as found in the brush...

And to compare, a picture of our friend Kip's Hydrocycle. The rear design look very similar, but the fronts are different.

That looks fun......If I was 30 years younger :o

Just the idea of being able to use a standard outboard makes it nice.
No bad marriage contract with the stealership for parts.

Good eye Cole! That will sure be fun when it's finished. Keep us updated with the restoration.
