can it work in the lake

It is a fast little boat, but remember it is small. Mine is also very water tight. But, the water must be smooth...or you run the risk of flipping it over.

I tested on the pool before taking it to the lake and it sunk after 2 minutes using it. It is really powerfull and fun to play with but the hull is not water tight.

Honestly.. Prob. NOT... if it didn't work in a small pond what would be Tue likelyhood of it working in a wide open lake.. I say no. Don't buy from this guy or gal.. Whoever the supplier is.. They never contacted me on replacing the one I bought.. Save your money and find someone else..

It's small, maybe a foot or so long. I run it in my pool with the pump running so there is some chop in the water and it does fine. In a lake I think it would do fine as long as the waves/chop isn't over 4 inches or so.

don't expect more from the motor than what you pay for it..if it's on a lake your fine.. don't expect to hit any rivers with it. Motor runs good though.

It's very fast as far as water proof you can get it wet I would not run it into a lake.

It is water resistant, but not water proof. It has an open USB port that has a plug...that will easily let water into the device if submerged. It would not survive jumping into the lake...but probably would survive a sprinkler or rain as it is located under the neck with the collar clamp.

Yes, it can be used year round. I know people who place the unit on a floating platform (think inner tube) and use it to locate fish in the summer. Of course, using it on a non-frozen lake supported by a floating platform introduces risks not found when using it on a frozen lake.

Our pump is hooked up to a lake, left out all summer. Under cover in winter. Works great.

If you have a deck at least three feet around the above ground pool, then yes it would work.

Yes, it works pretty good. When we go to the water park, I use it in the water. I love it! I would recomend it to every one.

Yes the water will will work on low or high speeds. And it can be set for no water once its cooled in the evening on either speeds too, if desired. It works great. I have a 2 speed motor which is necessary to do this.. :)

I imagine the unit would work as long as the water was flowing and not frozen itself. Otherwise I do not know.

It might if you put the nozzel attachment for it however I don't have that one on mine so unable to give you a good answer. As soon as I took this out of the box outside it was working ads a nice element to my pond\ water garden. I purchased for airation purposes

I don't have a lake, but my kids put it in the middle of our pool and worked just fine. It won't tip over, but it'll move around easily. You'll need to anchor or tie it to something.

Honestly I'm not sure. I've got it on a fresh-water lake. The mechanism underneath is a steel bar with plastic paddles and plastic rudder, so it may work alright in salt water if you take it out after use and oil the steel parts periodically.

It has to be in three or four inches of water to turn on and work. Both plugs must be plugged in. If it doesn't work then I suggest that you contact customer service, they are extremely helpful.
