Sea-Doo Lifesaver

Great for shore dive getting too and from your dive spot, or going through a current. I cant say enough good about these I dont know how I made it this long without one. The only drawback is that it seems to go too fast for a wreck dive or when you just want to explore, and too bulky to drag around with you so you have to get to where you are going and tie it up. But well worth it....

Disappointed!
Purchase came with a canvas carry bag (nice), but the metal zippers were constructed so poorly that each zipper broke apart like an egg shell during their initial use (not so nice).<...Read complete review
Purchase came with a canvas carry bag (nice), but the metal zippers were constructed so poorly that each zipper broke apart like an egg shell during their initial use (not so nice).Scooter motor is noisy - can't say if louder than normal or any other type, as this is my first - it is sure to scare away fish and draw unwanted attention to yourself from other divers. I was told it sounded a lot like a dentist's drill!Not very powerful for my needs - I am 6-03, 260lbs, and the scooter barely pulls me. On the other hand, my wife is 5-04, 108lbs, and it seems to pull her along quickly.

About Me Advanced
Comments about Sea-Doo Seascooter VS Supercharged Sea Scooter:
This is one step below the Explorer in most respects but in others it is a better deal. All of my friends who have Explorers have had a lot of troubles (mostly with the battery). I use my VS Supercharge with a variety of other scooters and it keeps up rather well. The only Con that I can tell is the battery life is not as good as the Explorer or you don't get the advertised 1.5 hours advertised. I only get about 45-50 minutes of battery life. It is strong enough to pull me although I find providing a slight kick still saves me air and gets me to my destination rather quickly. Getting to the battery involves a few more steps than the Explorer but it's very easy. The construction is a lot more flimsy than the Explorer, the plastic is rather soft and feels as if it will break easily however I've yet to have any issues with that. I would suggest mounting a compass on the nose cone because in order to use it in second gear both hands must be pulling the triggers. This makes navigating rather difficult if you use a retractable compass. Don't expect to make any wakes with this but it does have enough power to pull me and I'm 250 lbs. I wouldn't try to pull anyone else with it. For the price you really can't beat it. Although part of me wishes I had went with the explorer, it does everything I need it to do.

works real well, outperformed my explorer. the only draw back is access to the battery and battery life. Otherwise it's a great little unit.

A Very Good Scooter
By Reef Diver

About Me Recreational Diver
Great aid for getting to and from reefs, wrecks, etc. Effective swimming aid for snorkeling and diving. A confidence builder for swimmers with limited endurance. Definitely adds to the diving experience. Well constructed and easy to maintain.
