With the global economy recovering and
living standards rising, the international yacht market reached €24 billion in
2023 and is projected to grow by 5% annually, hitting new heights by 2028. As
the yacht market expands, so does the demand for yacht accessories.
Manufacturers are introducing more personalized and customized products to stay
competitive.
This year, SUBLUE, an underwater technology
brand, launched the Vapor pump-jet underwater scooter. This product combines
intelligence and safety in water-based entertainment, using advanced pump-jet
propulsion technology. It offers a maximum thrust of 21 kg, a top speed of 10
km/h, and can dive up to 40 meters, providing powerful and stable underwater
propulsion.
Traditionally, pump-jet underwater scooters
are large, hard to transport, and expensive. The SUBLUE Vapor changes that with
its reduced weight and size, offering high performance at a more competitive
price.The Vapor stands out for its compact and agile design, allowing superior
maneuverability. Unlike other products that require shifting body weight to
control and dive, the Vapor can be easily controlled with arm and wrist
movements.
The Vapor is the first successful
application of miniaturized pump-jet technology in an underwater scooter. It
features a revolutionary propulsion system based on complex fluid dynamics and
mechanical principles, equipped with SUBLUE's ALO 2.0 (Active Loop
Optimization) technology.
Its core structure includes a 6-blade
impeller and a 12-blade rear guide vane, which work together to draw water in,
generate high pressure, and convert rotational energy into forward thrust.ALO
2.0 technology involves three main processes: water intake, acceleration, and
ejection. Water is drawn in through the intake, accelerated by the rotating
impeller to create high pressure, and expelled through the nozzle at high
speed, creating thrust to propel the scooter forward.Pump-jet propulsion
technology reduces water flow loss and vortex effects, improves propulsion
efficiency, and decreases energy consumption.
It also minimizes disturbances to the
water, producing lower noise and vibrations, making it more environmentally
friendly.The development of the Vapor pump-jet underwater scooter includes
multiple technological innovations, improving underwater propulsion efficiency,
diving depth management, and energy solutions.
As the yacht market continues to grow, the
demand for high-performance underwater scooters is also increasing. The SUBLUE
Vapor is set to meet this demand and drive new growth in the yacht
entertainment sector.
