  • How Does a Seabob Work?

Before every tour our trained instructor will brief you on the basics before handling the device.

  • The GREEN button on the right of the cockpit increases power
  • The RED button on the left decreases power
  • The TRIGGER on the right handle activates the propulsion system

If the machine exceeds a depth of 2.5 meters, the propulsion system will automatically lock the device and the Seabob will rise to the surface within seconds. The Seabob can tow at impressive speeds of up to 12 mph underwater and up to 14 mph on the surface. You control how fast you go and how deep you dive. To dive underwater & swim with the fish, hold your breath and point the machine downwards, for as long as and low as you feel comfortable with.
