To all whom it may concern Be it known that 1, Gem SZIKLAI, a subject of the King of Hungary, residing at Katona Jozsef utca 21, Budapest, V11, in the Empire of Austria-Hungary, have invented a certain new and useful Improvement in Rowing-Craft Intended fora-11 Amusement Device, of which the following is aspecification.
The present invention relates to a rowing craft intended, for the entertainment of people which after the manner of suspension railways, runs upon an upper rail track and is propelled by means of oars bearing in the known manner, aga nst projections or within recesses provided along the track.
in the accompanying drawing, two constructions oi the craft are illustrated.

A car a, of any construction, comprising one or more stationary seats I) which, after the manner of rowing boats, may be adapted to slide or roll to and fro upon rails, is provided with rowlocks 0 so that a person sitting upon the seat 2) can operate the oars cl in the usual manner employed in connection with boats. Teeth or the like projections or recesses are provided along the track and on either side of the car, at regular intervals, said teeth constituting points of support for the oars so that the latter propel the car Very rapidly by bearing against these teeth or the like.
from a four-wheeled car g, running upon two rails arranged above the track, while in What I claim and desire to secure by Letters Patent of the United States is In combination, an upper track, wheels mounted on said track, a boat structure suspended in a freely rotatable manner from said wheels, springs on which said boat structure is mounted, a lower track, two rows of abutments on said lower track, rowlocks, and oars fitting in said rowlocks and adapted frictionally to engage said abutments to propel the boat and by means of such suspension to produce a natural gliding and rocking motion, substantially as herein described.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
