: kayaks dont offer that you would wanna see.
Hi Richard,
Your new product could be a portable self contained battery opperated builge pump system.Manual pumps are a real drag whilst trying not to roll back over.Bill Ham inspired me to progress this idea.Thanks Bill!
I made a prototype out of a standard 12 volt builge pump and a small gell lead acid battery,switch ,fuse housed in some plastic drain pipe & lots of self amalgamating tape.The device can be past over to someone who needs it,which was the main advantage of it being self propellling!I have used the original bits to permenantly install in one of my working boats but...
This could be something that might be commercially viable.
Cheers from Paul . NZ.
