Dutch builder unveils plans for underwater superyacht

“People that have decided to buy a yacht will now have to consider if their vessel of choice can also dive down to 200 metres,” says U-Boat Worx chairman and founder Bert Houtman.

Not something I have ever considered when buying a boat...

It's the tender driver I feel sorry for.

I see it is called Nautilus.

Do you think that they have read 20 000 leagues under the sea ? If I remember, it doesn’t end brilliantly for Capt Nemo & Co.

I guess it would be a good way of giving the paparazzi the slip.

Where's the Plimsoll line?
Puts a different slant on "flush decked"!

What kind of return do you get from underwater solar panels?

My own yacht is quite capable of diving down to 200 metres.

I spend much time and effort trying to make sure it doesn't!

I can quite imagine one world leader thinking the ability for him to escape in a private sub down the Baltic to avoid the coming coup de grâce could be quite useful!

Another bl@@dy hazard to have to look out for!

It's OK; they got out of the Maelstrom. "The Mysterious Island" tells the story of the Nautilus and Captain Nemo after the close of "20,000 Leagues beneath the Sea"
