Foot-propelled catamaran watercraft

摘要

This invention provides a foot-propelled catamaran watercraft having a pair of parallel, spaced-apart pontoons rigidly coupled together, an overhead support structure, coupled to the pontoons, from which a rider, wearing a harness, is suspendable, a rider stabilization structure consisting of a pair of mirror-image-operable tillers graspable by the rider, and a rudder mounted at the rear of each of the pontoons coupled to the tillers for steering the watercraft. The watercraft is propelled by rearward thrusting movements of the rider's feet, which are preferably equipped with fins, or flippers.
