Best Answer

Basically, it's a pedal-driven paddle boat- the driver rotates a pair of pedals with their feet like bicycle pedals, which are linked by a connecting rod to one or two paddle wheels located between, or either side of, the pedals. This has the effect of powering the boat through the water.

Two seater pedalos always have 3 pedals on each side to allow one person to pedal from the center if boating alone. They are sometimes available for rental on small park lakes, and are commonly preferred for non-competitive fishing for their quieter motion compared to motorboats. A common type of pedalo allows for two people to sit side by side, pedaling together. In the United States and Australia, these types of boats are referred to as paddle boats.Prius, Porsche, Pinto, PlymouthAnswerpontiac or peugeot, porsche AnswerPlymouth Prowler a platinum van! my favPontiac, Prelude, Pria, Porsche
