Ever wanted to own a boat or jet ski, but don’t have the money (and space) to afford it? So, the electric minibar from the Chinese company Havospark can be an interesting choice.

Despite having only one seat, this vehicle has its appeal precisely because it packs big emotions into such a compact space – which allows you to touch the bow and stern at the same time.

This electric minibar measures only 1.8 meters in length, but has enough power to reach speeds of up to 48 km/h. This is thanks to its 15 kW (20 hp) electric motor and a water cooling system.

This vehicle’s lithium battery is 3.88 kWh and, unfortunately, only lasts somewhere around 30 to 50 minutes at maximum speed. Therefore, it is worth knowing that it supports up to 800 charge cycles.

To keep this electric boat light, the hull is made of ABS plastic, accumulating a weight of 35 kg. Another 22 kg is added due to the weight of the battery, making a total of 57 kg. For these configurations, the maximum supported weight is up to 140 kg.

As the minibarco is intended to be something quick and fun, there is no space to store belongings. There is only a small platform behind the pilot’s seat and a step of about 15 cm.

Since there is no rudder, the vehicle uses the jet propulsion system to steer the boat, similar to a jet ski.

For the ad on alibaba, it is not clear which model is on sale. There is a more harmonious option and another that, at least aesthetically, is not exactly the dream boat – the choice of colors and the random letters are a slightly scary combination. However, for US$ 10,000 (about R$ 48,000) it is possible to overlook the design, right?
