The foot pedal-powered impeller system comprises a foot crank coupled to an impeller drive via a vertical drive shaft. The foot crank, mounted on the top surface of a water craft, may comprise two pedals that couple to a central spindle via crank arms. The spindle may pass through a right angle gear box which translates rotational motion of the spindle into rotational motion of the drive shaft. The drive shaft may turn a shaft gear on the underside of the water craft which engages an impeller tube gear and turns an impeller tube. An impeller mounted within the impeller tube may force water to enter the front of the impeller drive via an intake nozzle, pass through the impeller tube, and exit through a discharge nozzle. The discharge of water may move the water craft.
