Abstract

The watercraft (1) is propelled by flippers (10) operated by a user (25) through pedals (3), with a step-like movement. It comprises a floating body (2) on which a support element is arranged, or handlebar (4), for the arms of user (25) in order to assist its action when thrusting pedals (3) for propelling watercraft (1). In particular, propelling flippers (10) are operatively connected to pedals (3) by means of substantially stiff arms (5) which move in a place orthogonal to the water plane of the watercraft. The resulting flipper operated watercraft is simple and easy to use and allows to thrust the pedals (3) with a step-like movement. The user can choose to arrange himself/herself between a standing/sitting position and a lying down position when using the watercraft same.
