The EGO-Compact is yet another 'semi-submarine' believed to function partly above and below water.ĭue to rising popularity of private submarines, some holiday resorts offer customers the option of piloting a submarine for an entire day. Other private submarines currently in the market are the Scubster, the Triton and the SEAmagine. For instance, the Seabreacher X boasts of a 260 horse power supercharged engine and is available for purchase at $80,000. The submarines are available at varied prices. The DeepFlight Dragon is one of the many private submarines available in the market, experts have claimed. The submarine is equipped with a fail-safe safety mechanism that helps the gadget float to the surface on encountering a power failure or system malfunction. This crew has been around since 2008 when they first appeared on the market with a no-retrofit submarine that could easily. The material used is believed to be lightweight and resists damage due to rust or corrosion. One team that builds adventure-ready personal subs is DeepFlight. The DeepFlight Dragon's hull has been manufactured such that it is capable of withstanding water and air pressures involved in ocean diving. One such material is carbon fibre, which has only recently been introduced in the market. Advanced technological innovations have resulted in engineers managing to build underwater machines that are more durable. The submarine, which is easy to operate, can travel at speeds up to 5mph and can go as deep as 400ft underwater.Īccording to a CNN report, private submarines are becoming commonplace due to the availability of cheaper and stronger composite material. DeepFlight Merlin is a personal submarine by Hawkes Ocean Technologies, part of the DeepFlight line of submersibles.The positively buoyant submersible was designed by Graham Hawkes. Inspired by the aerodynamic fighter jet that Tom Cruise flies in Top Gun. Its hover-board technology boasts of enabling a user to "take flight underwater". The Super Falcon 3S is the newest submarine in the DeepFlight range of personal submersibles. Available only for underwater warfare or marine studies earlier, submarines are now ready for recreational use.ĭeepFlight Dragon, a state-of-the-art product that offers consumers the ability to travel underwater, has hit the market and is priced at $1.5m (£1m, €1.4m). To channel your inner James Bond and order one, please contact or visit Deep Flight Dragon submarine sits on display during the Monaco Yacht Show in September 2015 Getty ImagesĪfter the advent of civilian drones, there is another mammoth toy that will soon be within the reach of the super-rich. I could go on and on describing the vessel in painstaking detail and extolling the wonders of this incredible feat of technology, but a video is worth a million words. The latest in personal submarines from DeepFlight makes ocean exploration as easy as playing a video game. The submarine can reach a depth of 1200 feet, but what makes it truly revolutionary are the nine foot wings that allow it to truly “fly” underwater. Triton Submarine’s 1650/3LP has an acrylic hull, while DeepFlight Dragon’s hull is made from composites, reportedly stronger and lighter than steel, that can be found in some of NASA’s projects. After all, as DeepFlight founder and world-renowned ocean engineer Graham Hawkes says, “you don’t buy a Ferrari and give the keys to a chauffeur.” At just under twenty feet long, this sleek silver vessel can be launched from your yacht or marina, and you and a copilot will be diving with whales or exploring shipwrecks in no time.

While the various personal submarine manufacturers have different hull configurations, most are somewhat spherical in shape. Imagine flying a small and agile private jet underwater with controls so intuitive you can learn to pilot it in an afternoon. The DeepFlight submarine represents a new realm that he can explore and conquer in a place where he is unlikely to encounter much paparazzi-and all the better that with this technological marvel, he can do it in luxury and style. A collector and racer of many an exotic sportscar (see China Rich Girlfriend), Carlton is always looking to push the limits, much to the chagrin of his mother, whose worst nightmare is that Carlton’s antics might be splashed across the front pages of China’s newspapers, causing disgrace to his politician father.
Ever since his days captaining the rugby team at Stowe, his exclusive English boarding school, Carlton Bao has had a taste for action and speed.
