Abstract:
In one example, a watercraft includes a hull that defines a well extending through a bottom of the hull, and the hull defines an upper tray recess and a lower tray recess. A pedal-drive mechanism is connected to the hull and configured to assume both a stowed position and a deployed position, and a portion of the pedal-drive mechanism extends through the well when the pedal-drive mechanism is in the deployed position. A pedal-drive housing and attachment mechanism is provided that includes a tray configured to move between a forward position in which part of the tray resides in the lower tray recess, and an aft position in which part of the tray resides in the upper tray recess.
