Digital compass
Your heading, live. You head back to the boat without circling, even when visibility drops.
The Navbow, plus what it takes to know where you are: compass, depth, temperature, adjustable alarm — and the fast charger in the box.
Mode, depth, temperature and heading, live on the OLED display.
Do not choose the Navbow+ to go faster: it does not go faster, and it holds exactly the same times — Turbo included, eight minutes before it drops back to Sport. Choose it if you lend the scooter out, if you dive with children, or if you want to cap the depth — the adjustable alarm is what changes the dive most. The fast charger does the rest: 1 h 45 instead of 3 h 30.
Sublue France — workshop and after-sales, Puget-sur-ArgensYour heading, live. You head back to the boat without circling, even when visibility drops.
Depth is read in real time — and can be capped: set a limit and the scooter warns you by vibration before you cross it.
Water temperature appears on the display and is logged with the rest of the dive.
Every dive is synced: review the track, set the limits, share it. Settings are made from the phone.
An hour and three quarters for a full battery, against 3 h 30 with the standard charger. On the Navbow this charger is an option; here it is supplied.
Adjustable depth alarm, low-battery alert, multi-layer battery protection: nothing stops without warning.
Open water, drop-off, sandy bottom — it follows wherever you take it.
Heading, depth and temperature live in front of you: the dive is flown rather than endured.
The depth limit is set and locked from the app. A beginner will not go deeper than the figure you chose.
The smartphone mount and the H1 waterproof case fit on top: filming no longer takes your hands.

* Allowed in the cabin, never in the hold. Do check with your airline before you fly, just in case. The Vapor batteries (384.8 Wh) are the exception: they cannot travel as baggage.
Hull, twin motors, three modes and battery are the same. The Navbow+ adds a compass, a depth sensor and a temperature sensor, an adjustable depth alarm, syncing with the Sublue app — and its fast charger is supplied as standard (1 h 45 instead of 3 h 30). See the Navbow.
No: same 7.2 km/h, same 137 N, same run times — 60 minutes at 4.3 km/h, 30 at 6.5, and 8 minutes in Turbo before it drops back to Sport for 15 more. What changes is the sensors, the app and the fast charger, which brings a full battery down to 1 h 45.
You set a depth not to be exceeded; the scooter warns by vibration before it is reached. Useful for a child, a beginner, or a scooter you lend out — the limit is set from the app.
Yes, in the cabin — never in the hold. Do check with your airline before you fly: above 100 Wh they have to agree, and two spare batteries at most. The scooter itself, battery removed, goes in the hold without trouble.
Yes, with the smartphone mount and the H1 waterproof case. Photos and video then land in the Sublue app.
A rinse in clean fresh water, propellers turned by hand, then drying before the battery compartment is closed again. The full routine is on our Transport and maintenance page.
A scooter rinsed after every outing does not age. That is very nearly all it asks.
Sublue asks that the scooter be immersed in clean water within thirty minutes of a sea outing, battery in place, and run for a few seconds at low speed to flush the salt out. No detergent, no soapy water.
Wipe the water off the body and the battery compartment, then let it air-dry somewhere cool. Never use a hairdryer: heat distorts the seals.
Out of season, scooter and battery are stored separately, in their packaging, out of the sun, between 0 and 45 °C and below 65 % humidity. Once a month, run it for ten seconds or so.
A dab of silicone grease on the propeller shafts and on the battery contacts, at the end of the season and after a long sea outing. That is what keeps corrosion away.
It connects over Bluetooth, keeps a log of your dives — depth, temperature, duration —, sets the depth alarm and applies the safety lock. Firmware updates for the scooter arrive the same way.
The Sublue Navbow+ is the instrumented version of the Navbow underwater scooter: same hull, same twin motors, same three speeds up to 7.2 km/h and 60 minutes of run time.
It adds a compass, a depth sensor and a temperature sensor, a depth alarm you set from the Sublue app, and a fast charger that refills in 1 h 45.
Heading, depth, temperature, adjustable alarm: the Navbow+ is the Navbow for those who go further than the surface.
