This boat/Sub is sweet. Was featured tonight on Monster Garage. It looks like a Dolphin and drives incredibly. Check out the link.

All I can say is where do I stand to order one of these thing?

Yeah, these are really amazing. They had a short article about it in Wired a while back, along with another submersible that uses "aerodynamic" (hydrodynamic?) wings to control lift and tilt, instead of taking on water as ballast. It could drop vertically at nearly 20 mph or more, and controlled through the water better than anything I'd ever heard about.

But yeah, these dolphin boat things, they're amazing!

i saw the video and it looks amazing, but i didnt really see it go under water more than like 6 inches, maybe they didnt have a waterproof camera, still id pay to ride in it.

It is submersible, but only for short distances, as it uses an internal cumbustion engine, which obviously requires oxygen.

Either way, I want one.

Would be funny to see that thing caught in a tuna net with the guy's face smooshed up against the plexiglass :D
