Mares announce the Atlas ADJ 62X
After many requests for an all-metal version of the tried-and-true Abyss second stage regulator, Mares is excited to announce the release of the Atlas ADJ 62X.
Mares’ engineers designed this regulator with the most extreme conditions in mind. The Atlas second stage’s all-metal design offers high thermo-conductivity, making this one of the best performing regulators for cold water diving. The robust, metal exterior is highly durable and designed to meet the requirements of the world’s most demanding dive environments.
The new Atlas second stage features the PAD system (Pneumatically Assisted Design), and the Mares patented VAD system (Vortex Assisted Design). This impressive combination allows for high airflow, delivering smooth, easy breathing at all depths and temperatures. Moreover, with no moving components inside the By-Pass, internal ice formation during cold water dives is never an issue.
Wearing thick gloves is also never a problem with the Atlas second stage as it features a newly designed wide pivoting purge button and a wide, longer breathing adjustment knob that are both easy to access. The Atlas also features a lightweight Superflex low-pressure hose which ensures advanced comfort during use.
Such an innovative second stage requires an equally advanced first stage. Mares paired the Atlas second stage with their top-selling and most reliable first stage, the 62X. This newly improved first stage will be Mares’ first recreational regulator to feature the Twin Balanced Piston (TBP). This combination is the ultimate solution for extreme cold water diving. Mares’ innovative Auto Sealing Technology (AST), which protects against water entering the first stage, and the natural DFC (Dynamic Flow Control), which guarantees elevated, consistent airflow, makes the 62X TBP a completely isolated unit. The ATLAS ADJ 62X is the industry’s best recreational regulator for cold water and deep diving use.
With the Atlas ADJ 62X, Mares continues to prove they are a leading force in diving regulator innovation. This new regulator is sure to become a staple amongst demanding divers and for cold water dives. With performance standards that exceed expectations at 200m and proven technology at 400m, the Atlas ADJ 62X is ready to live up to the high standards that divers have come to expect from Mares regulators.

The world‘s most popular luxury watertoy on all yachts is the SEABOB. The new SEABOB F9 with the Design by Studio F. A. Porsche will be presented the first time at boot in Düsseldorf
The SEABOB idea was born over 20 years ago. CAYAGO AG, based in Bad Salzuflen in Germany, is presenting the third generation of this unique water toy at boot 2025 in Düsseldorf. With the SEABOB, CAYAGO AG was one of the first companies in the world to bring e-mobility to the water. Environmentally friendly and free of all emissions.
After more than 10 years, the SEABOB F9 follows the SEABOB F5. The SEABOB F9 has been completely redeveloped from a technical point of view and provides unique driving characteristics. The technical performance data of the new SEABOB are particularly impressive. The SEABOB F9 has a thrust in the water that is measured in Thrust Performance of 60 TP.
The SEABOB F9 S boasts a Thrust Performance of 84 TP. This means that the water sled can pull its pilots through the water at speeds of well over 20 km/h. The battery runtime can last up to 1 hour with a sportive way of driving.
As a special highlight during the new development of the SEABOB F9, it was also possible to reduce the weight of the electrically powered water sled to just over 20 kg. This provides a whole new level of user appeal for this powerful water toy.
The unique vehicle weight has been made possible by the use of high-quality materials such as titanium, magnesium and carbon. The engineering of the SEABOB F9 was therefore focused on a technically high-quality lightweight construction. All components meet the highest quality standards.
When designing this new watercraft, the designers from Studio F. A. Porsche, in collaboration with the engineers at CAYAGO AG, succeeded in equipping the SEABOB F9 with excellent driving characteristics thanks to its special shape. The SEABOB F9 has thus created a unique symbiosis between a stylish form and a convincing hydrodynamic function.
The SEABOB F9 will revolutionize the world of electric water toys with its driving characteristics, its unique technology and its design.
