Aquatic weed harvesters offer an environmentally sound method of controlling excessive aquatic plant growth and nuisance vegetation in waterways of all sizes. These heavy-duty workboats are highly efficient in the management of submerged, emergent, and free-floating aquatic vegetation. Like an underwater lawnmower, an aquatic weed harvester cuts the vegetation, collecting and storing the weeds on board.
