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.
With over 20 designs to choose from at U-Boat Worx, is the latest NEXUS, the most innovative and cutting-edge yet. With an incredible field of view, the submarine can reach depths of up to 200 m, has a seamless elliptical window made up of three parts, and can accommodate 7 to 9 passengers. While the pilot has a fixed seat in the middle, the seats on either side swivel so that each passenger can experience multiple viewing angles in the extremely comfortable seats. Similar to the brand's Cruise Sub 7, the NEXUS offers between 900 L and 914 L of space per person with plenty of legroom.
Distortion through a curved window is minimized due to the thickness transition between different sections of the viewing window. NEXUS is also optimized for safety with maximum depth protection that prevents the pilot from exceeding the threshold at which the submarine can still operate safely. There is also a safety switch that allows you to immediately return to the surface according to a safe protocol.
NEXUS is also the fastest multi-passenger private submarine on the market at speeds of up to 3 knots, powered by a 62 kWh battery that lasts up to 18 hours. For more information on this model, visit the U-Boat Worx website.
