The beginning shows the assembly but the vid of it working is pretty neat.

It needs a trolling motor mount.

Not sure about this contraption.

nifty, but looks like alot of work.
If the hydrofoil blade could be sharpened to cut weeds....

serves no useful purpose.

Took far too long to assemble.

How long until Condello calls me on his cell while fishing on one of those things?

You'd have to get some kind of monkey to focus on propulsion while you tried to fish.

AWWW come on Sunil! I can totally envision you gliding effortlessly across your pond with the grace and ease of a water strider. Someone like Fatty McButterpants........not so much.

DJT, for any pond related activity, I usually only have one free hand. Therefore, I could not fish from this contraption.

I got tired watching the guy make it go. Plus it would cause one to spill a lot of beer, I think.

True unless of course you drink your beer from a Tommy Tippie cup and it's been months since I've done that.

Camelback system filled with draft, gentlemen.

Or a foam-dome hat for the Homer Simpson types.
(Insert brand of choice)

Well I guess that would be a little more dignified that drinking beer from a Tommy Tippie cup. But I kinda always liked the little bear on the cup. Besides I never let a lack of dignity stop me before. They don't hold much though so that's a factor.
