Approximate value between 25 and 50 dollars depending on which model
Features: Motorcycle style handle bars, 1 trigger for squirt gun, 1 trigger for propeller (protected in plastic cage).
Powered by 12 V - 8 D Cells - would prefer a rechargeable battery, but lasts surprisingly long - ours is on 2 full days without signs of weakness.
Slow, but safe - wouldn't want them to go any faster.
Will handle 100 lbs, can go backwards since handle bars spin 360 plus.
Lots of fun if you have 2 kids and 2 units.
One drawback is that there is still a possibility that the propeller may suck long hair in - this has not happened with us yet.
Can probably adapt a 12V rechargeable since the battery compartment is quite large.
Bumper Boat is VERY stable, would recommend it for AG pools.
My guess is 4 to 7 would be the ideal age group.
Update - looks like 14 year olds have a blast with this as well!
