That is nice! The scootoer isn't bad either.

The Ultimate the K10 Hydro Speeder 8 knots

Interesting, my DPV instructor told me about this. He said the guy who started this unit was trying really hard to get it to take off in the marketplace but struggled then kind of disappeared. Apparently because the cost was so prohibitive. I heard that you need to take a whole different specialty but that PADI has approved the outline for the course.

Can you tell me anything else about it, and how about an online source? BTW - excellent picture, really.

thanks,

Have you ridden the hydro yourself? Do you know of any facility that rents or any live-aboards that carry them?

I checked both the Websites for Hydrospeeder and the factory and both domains are up for sale, so I am guessing it is all over for the Hydrospeeder, real shame !!

I was lucky enough to take a ride on one a few years back, here in Sydney and it was just magic , they had to put a windscreen on it to hide the Reg behind, cause you went so fast they all free flowed.

Here are some more pics for anyone interested what a great toy it would have been

My LDS has one of those in the shop for sale. It must be a different model, because it's used and the price is $10,000.

Not my cup of tea....

Hi

The company that produced the hydrospeeder went out of business five years ago, but you still see them come up for sale on Ebay from time to time.
