However, it is on a much smaller scale and is driven by a small out-board motor-hanging from 1 1/2-3 horse-power. Several such boats have been built in Gillams, chiefly for carrying around on camping trips. They are very light and can be carried on the top of a car. They are used chiefly on ponds - for trouting or just for pleasure - where one don't want speed-or size. Notice the handles on the sides, for carrying the boat.
