AquaStar underwater Sea Scooter

AquaStar

AquaStar scooters in Florida have developed a pair of recreational submersibles which both offer ease of use and relative affordability when compared with other undersea vessels.

The two-person AquaStar2 AS2 is based on the smaller, single seat Aquastar1 AS1. Both subs share a similar design, but the AS2 has an additional seat and an extended helmet.

The AS2 offers scuba diving-like capabilities, but without certification, no cumbersome attached gear, and no experience required – especially if you’re the passenger.

The AquaStar2 AS2 can dive to around 12 meters (40 ft), and achieve a top speed of 3.1 mph (5 km/h). The batteries last around 2 hours, although the air supply will need changing after 1 hour and 10 minutes. If for any reason the electrical system should fail, a backup system – using the compressed air tank – can bring the sub to the surface quickly and safely.

    I work with the TRITON – Aqua Star was showcased at the Expo event.

    I need the contact name and phone number for person (s) I met at the Expo Event. I believe they are located in Fort Lauderdale and I’d like to call them.

    Thank You
