Need a mower I can mow out over wet areas with that does not ride on or run on the ground.

Anybody got any ideas,seen any such thing or built something?

Have you checked out a flymo hovering lawn mower?

What about suspending one of those self powered ATV mowers from your frontend loader frame. Or better, yet, mount a LandPride FDR2584 from it. Power with hydraulic supply and motor. (I'm workin' on that one for a field mower SomeDay project).

I don't think they will mow out over a ditch.

Getting the needed reach is the challenge.

There are boom type sickles, but, won't work well in wet grass. To cut the wet grass, either the knife/blade must be very sharp or the blade speed must be high. For the wet grass, the best mower is old classical drum mowers which has a speed of about 2000 rpm. See attached small, 4 ft, drum mower. Requires less than 20 hp.

By the way, contrary to the belief, mowing the wet grass is better than let it grow for the health of grass from biological point of view. But, I don't understand much about biology and this claim is not my claim, just a copy & paste of their thoughts of some biology experts.

Best ditch mower made IMHO, Bush Hog SM60....But you're gonna have to get a whole lot more tractor to handle it.

Woods is a dirty word with me. (at least with mowers) I've owned a few of their mowers and had TERRIBLE luck with them. (Gear box failures/paint shedding in sheets/welds breaking/ect) I still own a Woods rear blade, a box blade, and a pulverizer that have served me well.

How about these boom mowers from Power-Trac.
