A personal watercaft without noise, bone-crushing waves and blinding water-spray may not sound like much fun, but you could be surprisingly pleased with your decision. While possibly rating lower on your thrill meter, the adventures on a HydroBike can have offsetting pleasures for the althetic water enthusiast seeking a good acrobic workout.
Sleeking into a haven at sunset or first light of day and silently observing waterfowl and movements of the deep with less disturbance than that of a paddle, gives both pleasure to the soul and a feeling of one with nature. Yet, comfortably perched on the seat of your HydroBike, your visibility is greater than in a canoe, or kayak and there is less chance of a backache, cramped legs or a spill. Therefore, street clothes can be worn without fear of getting wet.
Totally portable, this 10-foot lightweight craft can fit into most mini-vans, and SUV's. One person can assemble and dissassemble the unit without any tools, and slip it into the water at almost any location. It is ideal for narrow or shallow water and operates in less than one foot of water.
If the drive train encounters rocks or sand, it automatically pivots up and over the obstacle. You can even pedel right up onto the beach without damaging the propeller or rudder. The hydrobike is appropriately named the Explorer" and is available in both single and 2-person configurations.
*****LifeTime Guarantee on the motor*****
Traveling at a norma speed of 3-5 miles an hour, this is not a boring slow paddleboat. Peak speeds can reach as high as 10 miles per hour, if your motor is properly conditioned. Did I mention "you" are the motor?
The hydrobike's computer-designed propulsion system features a 90% efficient propeller with full camber and twist. The lower drive train is sealed watertight, providing protection even in salty seawater. Only the chain requires annual maintenance with an environmentally friendly lubricant.
Keeping fit was never so easy and so much fun. Designed for the free spirit from 8 to 80 years of age, the human powered motor lasts a lifetime, as long as you can make it to a lake, river, bay or ocean. Engineered for a safe reliable ride, the 55" wide unit is surprisingly smooth riding in choppy water and is exceptionally seaworthy, even in a 5-foot ocean swell.
*****Fishing for compliments*****
In fact, because of it's unique stability, the hydrobike makes an ideal platform from which to fly-cast into your favorite fishing hole. A special fishing rod holder has been molded into the body of the bike, along with a spot for your favorite beverage and a compartment for clothes or fishing gear. Cast your line out and slowly troll along with the quietest motor on the water.
But, your hydrobike does not have to be all peace and quiet. With its 400 pound rider and cargo capacity, it is stable enough to dive from and can quickly convert into a swim platform for all the kids in the neighborhood, you included. While it has been manufactured for over 13 years, it is still a showstopper and a great conversation piece.
It is a great ice-breaker for meeting new acquaintances at marinas. They love the feel of the bike and can't quite believe how easy it is to peddle and maneuver. If you want off-the-road biking, this craft is the ultimate in peace and tranquility.
*****Converts to a Duck Blind*****
There are many accessories available for the craft, the most unique being a popup duck blind that surrounds the cycle or platform seat. Just imagine how many times you wish you could just move your blind over a few yards for a better shot.
Kids seats are also available, but most like to ride comfortably on the consol in front of mom or dad. Should you want to take a ride after dark, running navational lights are also available. WaterStates Trading Company has a long list of accessories in design at the factory and could probably add your favorite idea without a great deal of added expense.
The craft makes an ideal dingy subsitute. espically when your sea legs could use some exercise. Towing harnesses are available for houseboats, cruisers, and sailboats, and the total weight of only 125 pounds for a single unit and 211 pounds for a dual bike; they can easily be supended from a davit.

Hydrobike's Unique Interchangeability of Platform made for Fishing!
Hydrobike's interchangeability of the platform makes it unique!
The secret is in the catamaran styled pontoons. The Hydrobike is quick and easy to assemble.
http://www.waterstates.com/
With no tools required, it breaks down easily for transport, and it can fit into the smallest truck or on your car.
In it’s original state it is human-powered, the Hydro-Bike pedals just like a bicycle, so you never need batteries or fuel. The Hydro-Bike skims along at 4-6 mph, with minimal effort, to outrun canoes and paddleboats. Its drivetrain and propeller system is 90% efficient. Everyone agrees that it’s great exercise.
Also, it is super quiet, allowing you to sneak up on those unsuspecting fish. You don’t even need an anchor - you just pedal back and forth to stay in your “sweet spot.” The Hydrobike is safer and more stable than many other small boats and puts you where you want to be…right at the fish!
However, should you want to convert it to a pontoon, switch to a platform, add an electric trolling motor and you have a fishing craft second to none. "The Sport" is a platform bolted onto two pontoons made from molded polyethylene. The platform is made of powder coated aluminum and provides a very sturdy place to stand or sit and cast for your favorite fish.
Although it comes with oars that easily push "The Sport" wherever you want it to go, you may opt to install a trolling motor and use that for propulsion. The trolling motor pushes "The Sport" with incredible ease, and much to everyone’s delight, quite a bit of speed. It comes with a very comfortable swivel seat that is quite nice to fish from. An optional front-mounted custom rod holder allows hands-free trolling, while you pedal around the shorelines and narrow channels.
Can’t seem to maneuver into those shallow waters, brushy areas, or hard to get to lakes where you just know that big fish is lurking? Just a few inches closer and you’d be there…but no…too shallow, too many rocks, tree limbs, stumps…what can you do?
Hydrobikes allow you to fish from a higher position than other lake boats. You can see down into the water and find those stumps, fish reefs, and other underwater structures where the BIG fish love to hide.
Unlike the noisy outboard motors or even the constant whir of a trolling motor, the Hydrobike is so quiet...the fish never hear you coming! Plus, the Hydro-Bike takes you where they want to go, including channels just 5 feet wide or 1 1/2 feet deep. It’s highly maneuverable, and even pedals backwards. So, it’s handy for fishing, photography, or scuba diving. It’s quiet too.
This watercraft is 10 feet long, 5 feet wide, and weighs only 125 pounds; yet, it can hold up to 400 pounds! It features a computer-designed, 90% efficient underwater propulsion system, and catamaran styled pontoons made from rotationally molded polyethylene that are virtually indestructible.
The Hydrobike has two 13.5” x 47” side decks that can hold coolers, tackle boxes and any other gear you need for your fishing adventure. Totally stable, even in large boat wakes, you can stand on the side deck and cast into those really hard to reach places without fear of tipping over.
Capable of sustaining 4-6 mph with minimal effort, it allows you to actually exercise while you fish! Need to cool off? Go ahead - jump in for a swim…Hydrobike side decks are low to the water, making it easy to re-board without tipping over.
With the Hydrobike, you will never again lose your favorite lure to those tackle-grabbing tree branches or overhanging bushes…just glide right up to the tackle thief and retrieve your lure!
