Have you ever dreamed of a yacht that is not only an oasis of luxury on the water surface, but also an explorer of the sea depths? The Migaloo M5 is a superyacht that goes beyond all limits - 165 meters of pure elegance that can transform into a submarine.
Come on! You no longer have to be Jacques Cousteau to explore the depths of the ocean with a submarine, since the Dutch company U-Boat Worx has been developing various models of submarines for private use since the beginning of 2005.
The U-Boat Worx Nemo Mini Submarine will take you and another passenger on the adventure of a lifetime! It is one of the most sophisticated and lightest underwater vessels with a revolutionary design, personalized for individual use.
Carapace is a luxury 'amphibian' concept that is a superyacht and submarine in one.
Those of you who remember the movie Das Boot probably shudder slightly at the thought of a submarine. Lots of tension, not enough space and lots of problems. But a ride on this seagoing vessel doesn't have to be always unpleasant. Well, at least that's what it seems when we get to know the Neyk submarine better. For those of you who don't want to dive, but are still tempted by the underwater world.
RMS Titanic (Royal Mail Ship Titanic), which today rests at a depth of 4,000 meters, even a century after it sank to the bottom of the North Atlantic, stirs the public. All those who are not satisfied with this unfortunate transoceanic voyage will be able to venture among the shipwrecks in 2018 and relive the movie classic of the same name.
The thought of owning your own submarine may seem crazy even to a millionaire, but that hasn't stopped Dutch company Ortega Submersibles from building a pocket submarine for civilian use. The submarine for three performs perfectly both below and above sea level. It is powered by electric motors. It glides under water at a speed of 17 km/h, and on the surface with three more. Does it remind you of Bob too?
Sure, you can have it as a toy, but the U-boat Worx C-Researcher 3 is not just made for fun, but primarily for serious work. For scientific research, to be precise. And thanks to the many tools he owns, he can collect samples and organisms, analyze the seabed and water, and draw underwater maps. In addition to the helmsman, it can carry two more passengers and dive to a depth of 1,700 meters, where previously only documentaries on programs such as National Geographic took us.
So, you have a GoPro camera and a thirst for underwater footage. Unless you're wearing scuba gear, you probably won't be able to take your action camera exactly deep below the surface. That's where the Seawolf unmanned submarine from TT Robotix steps in. It has a built-in waterproof housing for the camera, which can withstand up to a depth of 10 meters and can wirelessly send a live image either to a smartphone or some other screen. This is thanks to the mini-ship with which the submarine is connected and floats on the surface.
Apologies in advance because you're going to be singing Yellow Submarine all day now. The fact is that we will not all be able to live, at least not in this yellow submarine, as the Beatles say in the song, because there is room for a maximum of seven people. But for those seven, the teardrop Y.Co Yellow Submarine with the technical name VAS 525/60 LE MK2, built at GSE Trieste, offers dream dives up to a depth of 160 meters.
For 212,200 euros (!) couples whose love is deeper than the ocean (and their wallets a little deeper) can spend the night in a private submarine at the bottom of the ocean.
