The Jet Capsule Reptile is a smaller, more compact, lighter and faster version of the Jet Capsule mini- yacht. This futuristic water vehicle weighs 500 kg less than its predecessor. Fitted with a high-performance marine engine capable of pumping out 570 horsepower, this vessel can hit top speeds of around 50 knots, well over 90 km/h.

The Jet Capsule Reptile is sheathed in a [carbon fiber shell](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/seanxt-elite) and a reinforced hull, and measures 7.5 meters long and 3.5 meters wide. The modified hull offers improved stability for maneuvering at high speeds, while the passenger seats come equipped with a handy anti-shock suspension system. The craft also features a protected deck with a seating area, diving platform and toilet.

Whereas [luxury water toys](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/custombuilt-yacht) once meant gigantic yachts, these days more and more people are opting for [compact and sporty water vehicles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hybrid-jet-ski-yacht). The Jet Capsule Reptile is the perfect offering for that particular market.
