Seabreacher X By Rob Innes
|
Seabreacher X is a two seater boat that gives immense pleasure on and under the water. Also, the boat is quick and is capable to roll 90 degrees to the right and left. The boat plunge under the water with the push of a joystick and can remain there for 20 seconds. Thereafter, after gaining little speed, boat jumps out of the water in the air with the push of the controls in the cabin.
“This isn’t a submarine – you’re not going to visit the Titanic in it,” Rob warns. “It’s more of a cross between a plane and a boat, and we’ve been improving the models constantly so they can do more and more tricks.” The fibreglass Seabreacher, which reminds you of ‘Jaws’, doesn’t come cheap at 60,000 pounds. Rob, 37, along with friend Dan Piazza, 52, has converted his hobby into a roaring business. The duo built their first submersible 12 years ago. Today the rich are lining up to buy the customised toys even though they have to wait a whole year. “The seabreacher is really for people with a large disposable income who want to have fun,” explains Rob. “It’s pretty popular in the Middle East, but we’ve also sold them to clients in Korea and the Caribbean.”
