GPS Under The Surface: SeaNXT’s Elite Tech That Elevates Dive Missions
The Navigator: Redefining Underwater Exploration
The utility of a high-performance tender is now measured by the gear it carries. The SeaNXT Elite RS Underwater Scooter, which exhibited at ICE 2025, is more than a fast ride; it is a serious exploration tool. The French-made scooter is the first ever to integrate an offline map navigation system visible on its HD display. This GPS integration allows the user to always see their position relative to the starting point, fundamentally solving the challenges of underwater and surface navigation and enhancing overall safety and confidence during exploration.
The Speed and Thrust Equation: Carbon Performance
The Elite RS is engineered for extremes. Its performance is driven by a dual-motor propulsion system that delivers a top speed of 21 kph and an impressive 700N of maximum thrust. This velocity is made possible by the scooter’s construction: a full carbon fiber hull that keeps its weight to just 23 kg. This sophisticated material science ensures the scooter is light enough to launch with one hand but rigid and incredibly powerful when immersed, suitable for diving depths up to 40 meters.
Engineering for Safety and Sustainability
SeaNXT prioritizes safety and sustainable design. The most critical logistical feature is the inclusion of a fireproof aluminum transport case with every thruster—a world first. This feature responsibly mitigates the risks associated with lithium-ion batteries. Furthermore, the scooter uses low-turbulence, zero-emission electric motors, and its modular design allows for easily replaceable parts, supporting sustainability by reducing waste.
The Professional’s Choice: Endurance and Charging
The Elite RS is built for endurance, appealing to both leisure enthusiasts and professionals (divers, rescue missions). It offers optimal battery autonomy, ranging from a minimum of 30 minutes in high-speed modes to a maximum of 80 minutes in Eco mode. Recharging is efficient via a rapid charger (1.5 hours) with an optional adjustable charger that allows users to set the amperage (1A to 15A) to preserve battery life. This ensures flexibility and longevity for the asset.
The Verdict: The Final Word on Watercraft
The SeaNXT Elite RS is a decisive statement in the watercraft segment. It seamlessly blends extreme physical performance (21 kph, 700N) with advanced digital integration (GPS, upgradeable software). This holistic approach to design ensures that the scooter is reliable, safe, and genuinely functional for exploration, making it the essential high-performance watercraft for owners who demand digital precision wherever they venture.
