PRIVATE SUBMARINES

The private submarine is probably the most intelligent means of discovering the sea's riches. With the swimming-saucer, there is a prospective market which holds huge economic potential because of the multiplicity of seas and oceans and the beauties they hold. Wide portholes and reinforced picture windows make aquatic sight-seeing possible on board this twin-engined electric submarine with propellent twin-turbines. The hydrodynamics of the latter is researched to reduce any unnecessary trail (and thereby also reduce energy consumption). The quality and the shape of the unusual exterior surface reinforces its dynamic characteristics.

The piloting system by ballast tank and hydrodynamic lift doubles the submarines safety. The titanium and compound materials used in construction permit deep diving of more than 300 meters. The cost of design and construction is closely linked to the boats capacity to carry passengers, to the depth of submersion, to the autonomy and to the maximum speed at a desired depth.
