For many people, making the most of a luxury charter vacation is as easy as reclining on a sun lounge or dining on gourmet cuisine. For others, nothing beats the thrill and excitement of burning up some energy on, under or hovering above the water on a high-tech gizmo.
Chartering a mega yacht is the ideal time to try your hand at a new gadget whether that be learning to operate a drone from your deck chair or taking a leap and diving to the depths in a submersible.
Here we cover the most covetable superyacht toys that enhance the charter experience for young and the not so young charter guests.

Air is provided for the passengers of the pod through an integrated electric air compressor in the floats which eliminates the need for a tank.
