Abstract

See full text

There is disclosed a watercraft paddle apparatus operable by a user's legs and feet. In an embodiment, the watercraft paddle apparatus comprises a pair of rails positioned side-by-side and mountable to a watercraft, each rail configured to slidably receive a pedal mechanism adapted to slide back and forth along each rail. Each pedal mechanism includes a downwardly extendable paddle adapted to engage a water surface on which the watercraft is floating during a backward stride and to lift from the water surface on a forward stride, whereby a user can operate the pedal mechanism in each rail using an alternating walking or skiing motion. In an embodiment, each pedal mechanism is supported laterally by a front axle with a pair of wheels on either end of the front axle engaging the parallel rails. In another embodiment, each pedal mechanism is attached.
