SEMINOLE, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Possibly the coolest new "must have" of the summer... A transparent canoe with a silent motor. That's right, a transparent canoe with a whisper quiet motor that you can control with a simple handheld remote. Now you can sit back in your personal glass bottom boat, prop your feet up, and not even have to lift a hand to paddle. You just have to lift a thumb to push left, right, fast, or slow on your handheld remote.
If you're one of those that prefers a paddle board because you can stand up and paddle and get those abs in shape... no problem. It has a very flat bottom so it's stable and easy to stand up in. You can work those abs while getting a fantastic view of what's beneath you. The only better way to enjoy a workout is to get someone else to do it. Just want to treat your canoe like a canoe? It has a 450 lb. weight limit, so load it up with a cooler & some gear and float (or paddle) down the river in style. Whatever you want to use your See Through Canoe for, it's hard to imagine you won't be smiling.
Michael McCarthy, owner of See Through Canoe says, "I started off 8 years ago as a distributor for the first company to sell a clear kayak/canoe hybrid. That company couldn't provide a steady supply of product in a timely manner so I went off on my own. I sourced all the components and now assemble the See Through Canoe in-house. Then, about 2 months ago I decided to offer a motor mount and silent motors just like I've been using on my own See Through Canoe for years." The motors have created a lot of buzz and renewed interest in the product and appear to be a real hit with See Through Canoe's customers. McCarthy is quick to point out that See Through Canoe is the first and only company to sell a transparent canoe with a motor.
The See Through Canoe only comes in one size and holds 2 people or 450 pounds, whichever comes first. There are 2 options for motors, a standard motor where the speed and direction are controlled by a handle, or the more expensive, top of the line customized wireless motor where the speed and direction are controlled by a handheld remote. The cheaper "standard motors" sell for $295.00; the more expensive customized wireless motors sell for $1,200.00. The See Through Canoe itself costs $2,350.00 and that price includes shipping anywhere in the continental U.S. For people in Hawaii, the Virgin Islands, or the Bahamas, you'll need to contact See Through Canoe for a shipping price quote. The company is based in Seminole, FL & offers a discount of $100.00 for locals that want to pick it up and don't need it shipped.
