				 battery life 
 i think he said around 5 hoursof constant use....
 
 i get about that much in my john boat or a little more
 
 I like the steering system controlled with your feet-that rocks
 the shut off feature, the rudder and speed adjustment are real cool options ...
 
 while i like the Hobie concept i don't like pedaling
 when i can adjust the dial... or crank the handle
 of a trolling motor
 
 in the best world :
 you'd have this set up "in a hobie"
 for when the battery goes dead then you can paddle or
 pedal ..... your way back and not be stuck
 
 in my case i got blown to the opposite shore in fierce winds.........
 the battery was real low and couldn't deal with
 25 mph gusts...so then i had to get out and tow the boat
 back on foot....  which is why i want both systems!
