A small air pump - like used for aquaries??

The pump is left in a dry place and the hose can be as long as you like
because there will be little pressure drop with the miniscule flow.

If the pump is indoors, then in cold weather water will condense in the
tube, and block it freezing the tube, and stopping the flow of
air.

Buy a radio controlled boat!
Yes, that sounds like a great idea, since it must use some kind of a
motor powering a rotating drive fan and the whole arrangement will be
water resistant... I'll investigate this one with interest!

I just wanted to say thanks to everyone for the overwhelming number of
possible ideas.

Can someone please tell me if there's a small, *water proof* DC motor=======================
Trolling motor is 12VDC and waterproof. Run it off a battery charger. That'll
keep the water moving!
