How much does a Seabreacher cost?

The California-based company, Innespace Production designed and manufactured a semi-submersible watercraft powered by a jet ski engine, called Seabreacher.

This is a safe and stable watercraft, a unique mix between a two-seat mini-submarine and a jet ski, that can jump into the air doing great tricks, reach a top speed of more than 50 miles per hour and dive five to six feet for up to thirty seconds.

How much does a Seabreacher cost?

The cost of a Seabreacher starts at around $85,000 and goes up to more than $100,000, depending on several factors and features you go for.

Seabreacher overview

The Seabreacher is positively buoyant, an amazing vessel that looks like sea animals, but its heart is a 4-stroke, 1500cc, supercharged Rotax ACE engine. This machine has a standard engine of 230 HP, but it can be upgraded to 300 HP.

The engine is paired with a high-performance jet pump which uses an impeller and a ride plate. The pump creates the force that pushes the vehicle further under or in the water. Also, this pump is equipped with a reverse bucket for moving the machine backward.

When talking about the sizes, the Seabreacher weighs around 1450 pounds, has a width of only 42 inches, and a length of 190 to 200 inches. On the other hand, a regular jet ski has a length of 110 to 150 inches and a width of 45 to 50 inches.

Seabreacher’s airplane-like cockpit accommodates two bucket seats, one for a passenger and one for the driver behind or in front of it. By pressing a button, the enclosed cockpit can be covered with a hatch.

In contradistinction to regular jet skis that are made to run on the water surface, the Seabreacher is designed to move in three axes, similar to an airplane. To better understand, this vehicle can not only move left and right, but it can also dive five to six feet under the water, and even jump out of the water.

Moreover, it can do a full 360-degree barrel roll and various tricks such as yaws and rolls.

You can control the Seabreacher by hand sticks and pedals. The hand sticks move the machine backward and forward. Though, these are connected to the front wings as well.

Also, there are two pedals in the cockpit that you can use to turn the machine left and right on a level axis.

This powerboat can be used both in fresh and salt water. It can be launched from a trailer on a regular boat ramp.

How can I drive a Seabreacher?

It will take you some time to get used to driving a Seabreacher. It is equipped with hand sticks for moving the machine backward and forward. Also, these are connected to the front wings.

When you push the hand sticks forward the center of the machine will be sucked underwater, while when you pull on both of them the machine will back up on the surface.

For rolling the Seabreacher you will have to pull on one stick while pushing the other one forward.

The jet nozzle is moved on a level axis with the help of the pedals. When you move the pedals right and left the jet nozzle will move right and left. Ultimately, this directed force will cause the machine to turn right and left.

When you push both pedals forward the jet nozzle turns downwards, which forces the Seabreacher to dive under the water. On the other hand, pulling the pedals back turns the nose up, which determined the vehicle to return from its dive.
