WaterGator: The Ultimate Remote Controlled Aquatic Harvester
Lake Weeders Digest is so excited to introduce the new WaterGator, a remote controlled lake weed cutter machine designed specifically for lake and pond weed harvesting The WaterGator is twice the size of its little brother the Waterbug, but it can cut, skim, and collect aquatic vegetation down to 4’ + water depth.
The WaterGator features the same technology as the Waterbug including a harvesting camera that shows the operator what the WaterGator sees on the remote viewing screen. The WaterGator also features "Auto Angling" which is a sensor that overrides the operator if the sickle cutter attachment gets too close to the lake bottom which protects the sickle cutter from damage. This harvester is ideal for larger ponds, lake shores, channels, and other medium size bodies of water. Based on that, the WaterGator is the perfect solution for lakefront owners, lakeshore management companies, lake associations, or anyone looking to easily manage their waterfront or get into the harvesting business to make money!
The WaterGator features paddle wheel propulsion with four paddle wheels, two on each side of the machine. The paddle wheels are powered by two 24v lead acid batteries that give the operator 8+ hours of run time on a single charge! The machine only weighs 875 lbs. and has a bunk storage capacity of 1,200 lbs. which is two-times the storage capacity of the Waterbug.
