Motorized Bumper Bloats Blow Other Pool Toys Away

14 June 2007

If you’ve got a backyard swimming pool, and you’re looking for a way to entertain the kids this summer, these motorized bumper boats are sure to be a hit.

A little more exciting than the balls and floaties I played with as a kid, these boats can be used in any calm water. They can chug along at 3 mph and turn in any direction using tugboat propeller technology. The inflatable boats (air pump included) come with an azimuth thruster to provide power and steering (requires 6 x D batteries). The seats are big enough for adults, so you can hop in and play bumper boats with the kids.

$100 each from Hammacher Schlemmer:
