WaterShark FAQ
Q: What's the difference between the WaterShark and the WaterBug?
A: The WaterShark is a dedicated cutter — it cuts weeds up to 5 ft. deep (vs. 28 inches for the WaterBug) and pushes them to shore with a 6 ft. powered rake. The WaterBug cuts, collects, and stores weeds onboard. Choose the WaterShark for deep, heavy weed beds; the WaterBug for cut-and-collect in shallower water.
Q: How deep can the WaterShark cut?
A: The WaterShark cuts aquatic vegetation up to 60 inches (5 feet) deep. The cutting depth is adjustable remotely, and a ground-detection auto-level switch prevents the sickle from hitting the lake bottom.
Q: Does the WaterShark collect the weeds it cuts?
A: The WaterShark cuts and then rakes vegetation to shore using its built-in 6 ft. powered rake. It does not store weeds onboard like the WaterBug or WaterGator — instead, it pushes cut material where you want it for easy removal.
Q: How long does the WaterShark battery last?
A: The 24V lithium-ion battery provides 7+ hours of continuous run time — enough for a full day of operation.
Q: What is "harvest mode" on the WaterShark?
A: Harvest mode sets the paddle wheels to a fixed, consistent speed so you can focus on steering and cutting without adjusting thrust. It makes long cutting passes easier and more efficient.
Q: Will the WaterShark work on milfoil?
A: Yes. The WaterShark's 5 ft. cutting depth and 4 ft. wide sickle make it especially effective on Eurasian milfoil, which often grows in dense, deep mats.
Q: Does the WaterShark come with a trailer?
A: Yes, the WaterShark includes a built-in low-speed trailer with a 2-inch ball hitch for easy transport to and from the water. Note: the trailer is not street legal.
