Human Powered Water Scooter

There’s still plenty of summer left and that means there’s still time to get out on the water. Make sure you plan for some eco fun, such as with the Hydrofoil Water Scooter.

This water scooter requires no fuel (unlike traditional scooters) and there’s no moving parts or engine. You power this scooter with your own human power. If you can hop fast enough, you can get going to about 17 mph. Another perk is that this scooter is a much better workout than the gas powered versions available. “For ages 12 and up with adult supervision and a Coast-Guard-approved life vest.”
