We may already be halfway through summer 2019 (where did the time go?!), but the fun is far from over. If you thought you'd found all of the floatable accessories you need for a day at the beach, lake, or pool (like giant pool floats and floating wine glasses), you're sadly mistaken. We've just uncovered a one-of-a-kind contraption that'll knock your socks off.

The GoBoat isn't your typical motorized pool float—it's meant for a rowdy game of bumper floats (bumper cars in water, duh). Its massive circular bumper makes it the ideal contraption for slamming into things.

The motorized float is simple to assemble (it takes only a few minutes minutes), weighs less than your average carry-on bag, and is extremely easy to transport. And while The GoBoat website emphasizes how it could be used effectively on your local lake—you'll have a bigger area to play in—I also think you could have a great bumper-float game in your backyard pool.

"The GoBoat has been a lifesaver for me," one online reviewer wrote. "I normally use a small kayak for my fishing, but I can’t do that anymore considering I no longer have a truck to put it in. But now, I just disassemble the GoBoat and put it in the trunk of my car!"

If you're not into the whole motorized float thing, GoBoat also sells regular and colorful inflatable tubes for your summer fun.
