A German company by the name of Jetworx is preparing to launch a highly versatile watercraft that is designed to make it possible, for the first time, to enjoy a wide variety of powered watersport activities from a single device.
The mo-jet is built around a special module that is equipped with a pair of batteries and a replaceable drive unit that is capable of providing 256 pounds of thrust. This rear module can be used in conjunction with one of several front modules that include an electric surfboard variant, a bodyboard version, an underwater scooter, high-buoyancy 'Surf Air' module and an inflatable rescue module that can carry up to three people.
Currently the subject of a crowdfunding campaign over on Kickstarter, this versatile watercraft is available for a pledge of $6,757, a price that represents a massive saving when compared to the prospect of purchasing multiple different watercraft.
