hydrocycle
A hydrocycle is a bicycle-like watercraft. The name was already in use in the late 1890s.
Power is collected from the rider via a crank with pedals, as on a bicycle, and delivered to the water or the air via a propeller.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 Decavitator Human-Powered Hydrofoil )〕 Seating may be upright or recumbent, and multiple riders may be accommodated in tandem or side-by-side.
Buoyancy is provided by two or more pontoons or a single surfboard, and some have hydrofoils that can lift the flotation devices out of the water.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 Wetwing )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】 Muskelbetriebene Tragflächenboote )〕
Brands include Seacycle, Hydrobike, Water Bike, Seahorse (Cross Trek) and itBike. Kits exist to temporarily convert an existing bicycle into a hydrocycle.
