Jobe Hot Seat

Single-Rider High-Speed Towable for Maximum Thrills

The Jobe Hot Seat is the ultimate single-rider towable for guests who want a pure, undiluted adrenaline rush. Its unique sit-on design places the rider in an upright seated position, delivering an entirely different experience from traditional lie-down towables. The elevated riding position amplifies every turn, bounce, and wake crossing into an unforgettable thrill ride.

Built with a heavy-duty bladder and reinforced handles, the Hot Seat is engineered to withstand the forces generated during high-speed towing. Its compact 120 cm length makes it the most storage-friendly towable in our range, perfect for yachts looking to maximise their water toy inventory without sacrificing space.

Unique Sit-On Design

The upright seated position delivers a completely different riding experience, amplifying every movement and turn into an intense, exhilarating thrill that traditional towables cannot match.

Heavy-Duty Bladder

Engineered to withstand the high forces of single-rider speed towing, the heavy-duty bladder maintains its shape and performance through countless sessions of intense use.

Ultra-Compact Storage

At just 120 cm and 5 kg, the Hot Seat is the most compact towable in our range. It deflates and stows with minimal space, making it easy to carry multiple units aboard.

Why the Jobe Hot Seat for Your Superyacht?

The Jobe Hot Seat occupies a unique position in the towable market. Its sit-on design creates an entirely different riding dynamic compared to conventional lie-down tubes. The elevated seated position means riders feel every wave, every turn, and every acceleration in a more visceral way. For guests who have tried traditional towables and want something new, the Hot Seat delivers an experience they will remember long after they return to the swim platform.

From a practical standpoint, the Hot Seat is a yacht crew's dream. Weighing just 5 kg and measuring only 120 cm, it is by far the most compact and lightweight towable in our collection. Yachts can carry multiple Hot Seats without any storage compromise, enabling crew to rotate units and keep the action going for groups of guests who want to take turns. Quick inflation and deflation further streamline operations.

Mercer Yachting supplies the Jobe Hot Seat through authorised channels with full manufacturer warranty. Our team in Marsaskala, Malta delivers to every major Mediterranean yachting hub — Antibes, Palma de Mallorca, Monaco, Genoa, Athens, and Split — with worldwide freight available to any nominated port or agent. We can build complete towable packages combining the Hot Seat with larger multi-rider options such as the Jobe Scout 2 and Sea Esta 3, ensuring your yacht has the right mix of toys to satisfy every guest preference.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the sit-on design differ from a traditional towable?

Traditional towables have riders lying face-down or sitting in a reclined position. The Hot Seat places the rider in an upright seated position, which creates a higher centre of gravity. This means every turn, bump, and wake crossing feels more dynamic and intense, delivering a distinctly different and more thrilling experience.

What tow speed is recommended for the Hot Seat?

The Jobe Hot Seat delivers exciting rides at moderate tow speeds of 15 to 30 km/h. Due to the elevated riding position, even moderate speeds produce a highly engaging experience. Start at lower speeds for less experienced riders and gradually increase based on comfort and confidence levels.

Can the Hot Seat be used by riders of all sizes?

The Hot Seat accommodates most adult riders comfortably. Its compact design is optimised for a single rider, with reinforced handles providing a secure grip. The towable is also suitable for older children and teenagers under adult supervision at appropriate tow speeds.

What tow rope and pump do I need with the Jobe Hot Seat?

Use a 16 m braided polyethylene tow rope with a minimum breaking strength of 680 kg (Jobe's single-rider recommendation), paired with a high-volume 12 V electric pump for quick inflation from the tender or deck outlet. Mercer Yachting can supply both the rope and pump alongside the Hot Seat as part of a bundled package.

What's the minimum tender power to tow the Hot Seat safely?

Any tender from 40 HP upward will tow the Hot Seat comfortably. For a single-rider upright design, torque matters more than top speed — most superyacht chase boats and limo tenders between 40 and 250 HP are well suited. Brief the driver on the 15–30 km/h optimal tow-speed window and clear hand signals before the first run.

Is the Jobe Hot Seat suitable for charter guest use?

Yes. The reinforced handles and heavy-duty bladder hold up to repeated daily use across charter rotations. For charter operators we recommend carrying at least two units so guests can switch without delay, and briefing every rider on tow speed, helmet use, and hand signals before they enter the water.

Do you deliver to ports outside Malta?

Yes. Mercer Yachting ships to every major Mediterranean yacht hub — Antibes, Palma de Mallorca, Monaco, Genoa, Athens, and Split — and worldwide by air or sea freight to any nominated port or agent. Typical Mediterranean delivery is 5–10 business days depending on destination and carrier. Rush options are available for charter-season emergencies.

How many Hot Seats should a yacht carry?

For a 40 m+ yacht hosting 8–12 guests we typically recommend two to three Hot Seats alongside at least one multi-rider towable (Jobe Scout 2 or Sea Esta 3) to cover families and couples. This mix keeps the water-sport programme moving and avoids guests waiting between runs.
