Swamp Shark Dwells at the Top of the Shallow Water Food Chain. There are lots of little mud boats out there with puny engines on them, struggling along at putt-putt speeds. Swamp Shark leaves them all in its wake.

Swamp Shark has been designed to smoothly absorb impacts from logs, stumps, and other submerged hazards.

The Swamp Shark propulsion system consists of several key components: A...
