Abstract
A watercraft having a combination of a canoe and a power boat style hull with a propulsion mechanism and an electric outdrive mechanism. The propulsion mechanism draws water from beneath the watercraft, through a water intake into a pump which pumps the water out through pipes located in wings formed in the hull. The electric outdrive mechanism has a power supply located within the watercraft that supplies power to a motor that turns a propeller attached to the outside of the hull. The motor has a skeg attached thereto to help steer the watercraft.
