Seabob, A Small Personal Watercraft for Above and Below the Water.

I thought I was seeing my first Seabob at the NY Boat Show. But then after talking to Michael Miller, a spokesperson for Seabob, I learned I probably saw them in some James Bond movies. They feature high performance electric engines with a power ranging from 2.5 to 4.5kW, depending on the model. Michael didn't give me a speed number, but according to the company website their engines deliver speeds in water/underwater from 15 km/h to 22 km/h. Doing a Google search, that's about 8.5 to 13.5 mph. Two buttons positioned on both sides of the unit allow you to shift gears, while a trigger starts the unit. Fully charged, the Seabob battery can be used up to an 1 hour, depending on a lot of variables. Charging time is 7 to 8 hours. There's a color display that shows speed, remaining battery, time, depth and water temperature. There are several color and model choices starting at about $10,000. Michael said that some models offer two integrated full-HD cameras, one facing forward to video record your ride and a selfie mode camera to record you and what's around you. Everything is recorded to an SD card, but your videos automatically upload to your smartphone when it comes into WiFi range of the SeaBob.
