BomBoard Portable Watercraft Starts Crowdfunding Campaign PersonalWatercraft.com December 2, 2015April 15, 2016 Shares Comments New engine and updated design among changes as production nearsA while back we wrote about a modular watercraft prototype called the BomBoard. That prototype has progressed almost to the point of production. To get it over the edge, a crowdfunding campaign on Indiegogo.com has been launched with the goal of raising $100,000. Just days into the campaign, more than half the target has already been reached, which is a good sign if you are interested in this ultra-portable PWC alternative. When we first wrote about the BomBoard, it was slated to receive a 250cc engine, but designers have decided to double that to a 450cc engine that produces a claimed 45 horsepower. Compared to modern personal watercraft, that’s not a lot of power, but the BomBoard has a dry weight of just 165 pounds. It can also fit in the trunk of most cars. Get the Flash Player to see this player. If you live on the water, you probably don’t need a machine that goes in your trunk. But for city dwellers who don’t have a tow vehicle or a place to store a trailer, this modular craft is very intriguing. The BomBoard will retail for $3,995, which is $1,200 less than a base model Sea-Doo Spark. However, early adopters to the Indiegogo campaign can get one for as little as $2,495. The BomBoard can be taken apart for easy storage. We are eager to test out a BomBoard for ourselves. Once we do, we will let you know what it’s like on the pages of PersonalWatercraft.com.
