Publication number: 20080188146Abstract: A pedal powered boat having a drive assembly including an eccentric idler provides adjustment or tension for a chain used as part of the drive assembly to power the boat. A crankshaft assembly and a bevel gear assembly are uniquely combined to produce a smooth pedaling operation for the user. The bevel gear assembly is operable to change the direction of rotation 90 degrees and increasing the speed three times for a net overdrive of six times for creating the speed necessary for a propeller drive.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 3, 2007Publication date: August 7, 2008Inventors: Harry Howard, David Wilcoxen

Publication number: 20080060569Abstract: A pedal-powered kayak, the present invention offers a more rounded keel and stem which operates in the water leaving no or little wake in the front or the rear of the boat. Since little water passes into the boat there no rough ride. The hull further provides a pair of fullers integrally formed on hull and extending along each side of the hull from said keel to said stem to provide a greater wetting surface for the hull as kayak moves over a body of water. The hull also provides a pair of strakes for lifting the hull as the kayak increases speed over the water.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 3, 2007Publication date: March 13, 2008Inventors: Harry Howard, David Wilcoxen

Patent number: 6210242Abstract: A pedal-powered watercraft comprises a unitary hull having an upper wall extending from a bow portion to a stern portion of the watercraft and a pair of spaced hollow sponsons located on either side of the upper wall. The upper wall together with inner walls of the sponsons form a tunnel that opens generally downwardly and extends from the bow portion to the stern portion of the watercraft. A deck is connected to the hull and includes an elongate opening that defines a cockpit area for receiving an occupant. A seat is located in the cockpit area and a pedal assembly is connected to the hull forwardly of the seat. The pedal assembly includes a pivotal pedal tower and a pair of pedals rotatably mounted on the pedal tower. The pair of pedals are operably connected to drive the propeller during pedal rotation.Type: GrantFiled: October 13, 1999Date of Patent: April 3, 2001Inventors: Harry Howard, Tara Ann Howard
