Here is a Custom Replicas 66 inch. Disney ( 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea,) Nautilus Submarine. Built and converted to a static diving, R/C model by Bob Martin (Nautilusdrydocks.com)
Disney really pulled off the ultimate design for the Nautilus. They hit the nail of the head with Jules Verne's (spelling right?) description of the sub looking like a sea monster in the water. If you saw that thing bearing down on your ship at ramming speed you would think it was a monster coming for you for sure. Imagine it now: Monster speeding towards you... Your cannons have no effect... It's getting closer... No hope... EXPLOSION!... Do you jump ship or go down with it? You decide.
Well done, looks awesome! Bought the same 66-incher from Jim Key about 5 or 6 years ago but still haven't build it :-( but this video wets my appetite again to finally start building it.
