Default concrete submarine yacht, personal submarine

That is the coolest thing I've ever seen in my life!!!

When I lived in Hawaii (over 20 years ago) I dreamed about building a very
similar craft, although the details were different from yours. I never got
started building my dream sub, thinking it was too crazy an idea, and
potentially dangerous. My dream was to live aboard a concrete sub, largely
because it could be left sitting on the bottom, out of the way of other
craft and secure while I was ashore. Ability to enter underwater securely
was important to me, I see this feature lacking in your design.

I sure would love to see all the technical details of your machine!

I built a nice 20 ton submarine yacht and had a lot of fun diving in
it. Be asured it works. Many of your questions will be answered if you
have a look at my submarine at website:

I would be glad to discuss such a proyect with anyone interested in
submarines, personal submarines, submarine yachting, c-subs, and
similar.
