Seabob – Electric Underwater Scooters | F5, F5S & F5 SR

Shop the full Seabob lineup, manufactured by Cayago in Germany — electric underwater scooters engineered to pull you through the water with minimal effort, whether you’re cruising the surface, diving beneath it, or exploring reefs and open water. Each model in the F5 series shares the same core E-Jet propulsion technology, with performance, features, and price scaling up as you move from the F5 to the F5 SR.

Shop by Model

Seabob F5 is the lightest model in the lineup, offering the core Seabob experience — powerful jet propulsion, neutral buoyancy handling, and intuitive control — in the most accessible package. Seabob F5S sits in the middle of the range, adding refinements over the base F5 while keeping the same core performance profile. Seabob F5 SR is the top-tier model in the F5 series, delivering the highest power output and thrust of the three, along with additional standard features like the Seabob Camsystem (dual integrated cameras with Wi-Fi) and rear stabilizing fins for improved maneuverability underwater.

How a Seabob Works

A Seabob is a fully electric, handheld propulsion device that pulls a swimmer through the water rather than requiring a board or seat. Its E-Jet Power System draws water in through a high-speed impeller and expels it as thrust from the rear, propelling the unit and rider forward. The sealed lithium-ion battery and neutral buoyancy design make the unit feel nearly weightless in the water, and controls are kept intentionally simple — two handles with a trigger, plus a display showing speed level and battery status.

Choosing Between F5, F5S, and F5 SR

All three models share the same fundamental technology and ease of use, so the right choice generally comes down to how much performance and how many extra features you want. The F5 SR’s higher power output and additional gear levels make it the most capable option for riders who want maximum speed and control range, while the F5 and F5S offer a lighter, more accessible entry point into the same core experience. The F5 SR’s built-in Camsystem is also worth considering if capturing underwater footage is a priority — on other models, this may be available as an optional add-on depending on configuration.

Where and How Seabobs Are Used

Seabobs are popular both on the surface and underwater, and can be used for recreational cruising, snorkeling companionship, reef exploration, or paired with scuba gear for extended underwater excursions. Their compact size and manageable weight make them practical to store and transport on a yacht, at a lake house, or at a beach property, and their quiet electric operation makes them well suited to calm, controlled environments like pools and protected coastal water.

Frequently Asked Questions

What’s the difference between the F5, F5S, and F5 SR?
All three share the same core Seabob technology, with power output, features, and price increasing from the F5 up through the F5 SR. The F5 SR adds the highest performance tier along with standard features like the integrated Camsystem and rear stabilizing fins.

Do I need diving experience to use a Seabob?
No. Seabobs are designed with intuitive, simple controls suitable for recreational swimmers, though like any powered water device, first-time users should familiarize themselves with the controls in calm, controlled conditions before more advanced use.

Can a Seabob be used with scuba gear?
Yes, Seabobs are commonly paired with scuba equipment for extended underwater exploration, in addition to surface and snorkeling use.

How is a Seabob different from a traditional dive propulsion vehicle (DPV)?
A Seabob is a handheld device you hold onto rather than sit on or wear, using jet propulsion rather than a propeller, with controls built for both surface cruising and underwater diving in one unit.
