Norwegian media reports on iMatJet®
[translated from Norwegian] "The German company iMatJet is going all out at the boat show with an impressive stand. If the manufacturer is successful, this innovation will soon be seen on beaches all over the world.
In the packed water sports hall at the Düsseldorf boat show, one exhibitor in particular stands out: the German company iMatJet. In addition to equipment for windsurfing, kiting and wing foiling, iMatJet is presenting what they describe as the world's first motorized air mattress.
»Verden's first motorized swimming pool
The invention is powered by two electric drives of unknown power, controlled by a wireless remote control. The propellers are surrounded by grids to prevent injuries while swimming. The battery bank consists of two removable 24-volt batteries with a total of 40 Ah, which is equivalent to 12.5 iPhone 14 Pro batteries. The manufacturer states on its website that this allows a one-hour trip at 3 knots.
"High expectations
The product seems to be aimed primarily at resorts, hotels and similar businesses, as well as rental companies. iMatJet believes there is a huge market potential. Whether it will be the next pedal boat remains to be seen, but it looks like iMatJet is investing heavily and wants to sell a lot of units."
