bumper boats

Aquatic collision amusement

Bumper boats are small, motorized watercraft designed to collide with each other, typically found at amusement parks and water recreation centers.

Like bumper cars, the appeal lies in deliberately ramming other riders while staying safely afloat in a shallow pool.

The boats are usually inflatable or have rubber bumpers around the hull: The kids spent an hour on the bumper boats.
