Seabreacher X By Rob Innes

Seabreacher X is a compact two-seater. So the passenger has to squeeze in alongside Rob for the exhilarating ride. Rob keeps in touch with Dan on the shore through a radio. Each unit of Seabreacher shark takes a team of seven people three months to build. The latest one is the ninth Seabreacher to be rolled out by Innespace and they still have 31 more orders to execute. “We’re not interested in making a mass-market product,” says Rob, “just one-off pieces that we customise for each buyer.” They recently made one for a client in Dubai, with air conditioning. “The next one we’re building should allow us to roll a lot quicker,” says Rob cheerfully. “We’re also trying to get those barrel (360-degree) rolls sorted.”
Operating the Seabreacher is fairly easy, says Rob. “Unlike a boat where you have left and right, fast and slow, this is more like an aircraft. You have to think about pitch, roll and yaw.” The presence of the Seabreacher on the lake always draws hordes of admiring onlookers.
