pedal boat

Leg-propelled lake vessel

A pedal boat is a small recreational watercraft propelled by foot pedals that turn a paddle wheel, typically seating two to four people.

Common at lakes, resorts, and parks, pedal boats move slowly and require no special skill: We rented a pedal boat and circled the lagoon.

Also called a paddle boat.
