     The two-seater Seabreacher can reach cruising speeds of 40mph and underwater speeds of 20mph and can dive to approximately 5ft for brief periods. However, the vessel mostly needs to stay a few feet below the surface in order for the snorkel to stay above water. If you happen to go too deep, the engine will lose power and, due to its buoyancy, the vessel will return to the surface. There is also the chance that it will pop up backwards if you have attempted to dive too deeply and too steeply.

Designed to be operated both in fresh and salt water, the Seabreacher can be launched easily from a conventional boat ramp using a custom-built trailer.

If you tend to be a little claustrophobic, the vessel can be operated with the canopy opened and still maintain full speed above the water. Otherwise, you can be secure in the knowledge that the cockpit and engine area are kept completely watertight due to the pneumatic aircraft seals that are inflated by the pilot. If any water happens to enter, it is automatically pumped out by bilge pumps.

The Seabreacher was designed by Innespace, a California-based watercraft design company.

“After over ten years of prototyping, we have really developed a design that is very intuitive to drive, safe, and easy to service,” said company co-owner and designer Rob Innes. “We want our customers, many of whom live overseas, to feel comfortable purchasing our vessels.”

Innespace is currently selling custom-built Seabreachers with prices starting at USD$48,000. A more expensive customized version could include a tinted canopy, underwater viewports, electronics and instrumentation package and customized upholstery and will set you back approximately USD$68,000. You will also need to add from USD$3,000-$6,000 for shipping costs.


See Innespace for more details and boat specifications.

The newest Version !!
Seabreacher X
Posted Image

     f you saw this thing on your neighbor's trailer, you'd laugh at him. "What sort of pretentious man-child buys a boat shaped like a shark," you'd scoff into your mugaccino, secure in the knowledge that you'd never shell out for something so ridiculous. But you might change your tune if you caught him down at the lake and watched him pulling 50mph (80km/h) barrel rolls, then diving under the surface and launching the thing 12-feet (3.6m) into the air like some sort of evil mechanical dolphin. The Seabreacher X is preposterous in theory, but in practice it's an adrenaline machine that can do things pretty much no other watercraft can –

We've looked before at Innespace's gentler, dolphin-shaped submersibles, but while the original Seabreacher J looks like great fun, this new X version really tickles my petrolhead glands.

The key differences are a bigger engine, putting out 260 supercharged horsepower against the J model's perfectly adequate 155 – and a new body shape that replaces the J's friendly dolphin look with a fatter, wider, nastier shark look. The viewing panels below your feet are joined together to give the shark an open mouth. Personally, I wouldn't be able to help myself; I'd get some teeth put on and go scare a few swimmers' digestive systems empty.

The new motor boosts the Seabreacher X up to a top speed of 50mph (80km/h) on the water, and 25mph (40km/h) underwater – the chief purpose of diving under the water is to gather momentum and head for the surface at full throttle so you can launch yourself up into a giant boat wheelie and jump the thing right out of the water.

Steering, via the side and tail fins as well as the motor's vectored thrust (up/down/left/right) looks almost as tight and zippy as a jet ski – with the added benefit that you can use the fins to send yourself into a spiraling barrel roll. It just looks like a crazy fun ride for both driver and passenger as you tear through the water in the completely watertight cockpit.

The Seabreacher X comes fully pimped out with a video camera mounted on the top fin, so that when you're in Jaws mode you can look at your LCD screen, aim at a swimmer, and see the effects of fear both above and below the waterline. It's also got a GPS and on-board stereo – which as far as I'm concerned, should come with only one pre-loaded song you're allowed to play.

Now for the bad news – only 10 of these unique leisure-craft are going to be made, resulting in a price tag of around UKP60,000 (approx. US$93,500). But if you've got pockets deep enough, we've never seen anything on the water remotely like it.
