Title: Aquatic weed cutting apparatus

Abstract: A floating aquatic weed cutting apparatus is disclosed which is highly maneuverable and particularly useful for cutting along banks and around obstacles. The cutter bar is disposed entirely outwardly of one of the lateral sides of a flotation device. The cutter bar may be moved about an axis parallel to the central axis of the flotation device to change the angular disposition of the cutter bar for cutting along submerged banks and around obstacles in the water. The entire cutter may be elevated with respect to the flotation device to raise or lower the cutter bar from or into the water.
