This is the inflatable speedboat that provides a safe 2 mph speed on calm water, such as pools or small ponds. The outboard electric motor is controlled by a child sitting in the inflated hull--a handhold with a finger trigger turns the motor on or off immediately; the boat can accommodate two children at once. The motor drives a shrouded propeller with no exposed blades that provides smooth movement over calm water; the motor can be turned 360º, so even backward movement is possible. Requires eight D batteries that provide up to five hours of operation. Deflates to 25" L x 13 1/2" W x 8" D for off-season storage. Hull constructed from 3mm thick PVC. Supports one child up to 45 lbs. Ages 5 and up. Inflated 53" L x 25" W x 8" H. (8 lbs.)
