"Miss Mongoose"
Ray has spent the last few months constructing the Miss Mongoose in his garage and finally it is time to launch this historical event. After much calculating and planning the "Miss Mongoose" is on her way to make a maiden voyage in the Ryderwood Lake. Her paddles and rudder were constructed by Ray as well as the whole hull and the ballast was calculated to hold Ray so she didn't roll over and sink!
The fit was perfect, over the bridge we go. Have about 2" on each side.




The launching of "Miss Mongoose".
She was made from a used Mongoose bicycle frame with handmade paddles handcranked by using the pedals.
Pretty cool idea if you ask me.
