Duma isn’t just a one-trick pony — or doggie. The seafaring canine has become a ‘spokespet’ (we just made that up) of sorts for Torqeedo, “the world leader in electric marine propulsion solutions from 1 to 80 hp.” (Their engines convert battery power into propulsion.) According to AikenLocalNews.com, Duma’s favorite is the Torqueedo Cruise 4.0, the equivalent of a 8-hp gas-powered outboard. America’s Got Talent will highlight Duma and other extreme auditions on July 15, 8pm on NBC.
