Abstract:
A machine for air propulsion of a canoe comprising:(a) a frame comprising of a main vertical member having a bore along the vertical axis of said member, (b) a support structure for said frame, having a vertical shaft member, said shaft member fitting snugly into said bore, allowing said frame to be rotated about the vertical axis of said shaft member, (c) means for adjusting resistivity of rotation of said main vertical member about the vertical axis of said shaft member, allowing said frame to be secured in a fixed, desired position or to be rotated, (d) a device for providing mechanical energy mounted on said frame, having a rotatable output shaft, said device providing rotational energy at reduced rotational speeds to said output shaft, (e) an air propeller mounted to said output shaft, whereby said propeller will produce propulsion and will be revolving with reduced rotational speeds that will allow for verbal communication.
