There are rumors that Water Skeeter has gone down, though there is still existing stock out there. Maybe best to call their phone number to see if parts are still available, their web site looks dated.
At 64 years and in good shape, I might be able to carry the lightest Skeeter pontoons with accessories (pump, poles, tackle, fins, oars, water, snacks, etc.) 40#? a mile or so on flat paved ground for a day trip. Not for me over rough, hilly or brushy ground, or by making several trips if overnight camping. I could do it I was 21 again, but it still wouldn't be that much fun...
