The Hypersub is the world's first autonomous, small submarine capable of high speed surface travel over long distances. Visit our web site at hypersub.com. This is a promotional video made from the best clips filmed during the first series of 21 test dives made in Kingsley Lake, FL by the prototype. During this testing, the prototype logged over 25 hours of submerged time with two (occasionally three) crew on board at depths up to 30 feet. For each dive, the prototype charged its own systems (air and battery) and motored out using its 880 hp surface engines, carrying up to 225 gallons of fuel. The longest dive was 1 hr, 45 mins. using only cabin air. The longest single-dive distance traveled submerged was approx. 1.3 - 1.4 miles. The prototype attained submerged speeds in excess of 2.5 knots. All dives were conducted with a light battery load, and with a proper load the vessel could have gone up to 34 miles submerged in one dive.

Its Great! A concept whose time has come. An 8 ft long boat with an in-board motor that you ride at high speeds laying on your stomach(like a sled) is another. Like this, Its never been done before.
to big 2 seats and smaller regular props not that jet stuff.simple materials fiberglass andsteel .get a fleet in the water then build biggger exspensive models
The thing is to bulky to become a success or to achieve serious speeds underwater. And most costumers want a small enough vehicle to easily transport over land. They should have used lighter materials and a smaller design like the dolphin. And then extended it. And nothing beats a good propellor for underwater propulsion. You wan`t to get as much grip on the water as possible. Just some useless tips from a frequent diver.
