There is nothing ordinary about the way it looks....
Or the way it glides for that matter.....
You submerge and it reacts and adapts.....
You toggle into gear, it comes to life....
THE YAMAHA PROFESSIONAL DIVE LI SERIES!
The Seascooter introduces the first LI-ION battery system in a lightweight recreational DPV that can be charged inside the unit, but that is also removable
for external charging and simple battery replacements required for back-to-back dives or snorkel runs.

OTHER FEATURES
BUOYANCY
The Seascooter contains a self-filling ballast hull to achieve neutral buoyancy almost instantly in seawater. Strategically placed drain holes allow water to
freely enter and exit the ballast space making the Seascooter assume neutral buoyancy when submerged, and expel it as soon as it hits the surface.
The Seascooter is designed for use in seawater. It will have less buoyancy in fresh water and pool and may sink in such waters.
FINS
The strategically placed front foil and pectoral glide fins prevent upward skidding of the Seascooter when accelerating and allow for the fastest
straight-line forward navigation underwater. The fins allow you to rest your arms while you use the Seascooter in the water.
HANDLEBAR + LED BATTERY STATUS INDICATOR
The handlebar of the Seascooter is the user's main navigation tool and is made of the best impact resistant material. It features smart ergonomically
positioned triggers for a natural thumb position during trigger operation, accessory D-ring attachment points and a dashboard-style LED battery status
indicator for an accurate voltage display during use.
