The Yamaha RDS 280 Underwater Scooter is the perfect choice for divers or snorkelers that want to increase their finning speed, reduce gas consumption and save energy. The RDS 280 is lightweight, provides up to one and a helf hours of runtime from the rechargeable battery and will propel you along at up to 2.8 mph.

The RDS 280 is depth rated to 30m and incorporates an removable buoyancy chamber that converts the scooter from positively to negatively buoyant, making it perfect for divers and snorkelers. The rechargeable battery and circuitry is protected by the waterproof construction and redundant o-ring seals.

The triggers incorporate an auto shut off dead man switch that instantly cuts the power to the motor if you should let go of one of the triggers, preventing the scooter from carrying on without you should you let go.

Includes the battery and battery charger.
