Mini-sub could revolutionise tourism!

The C-Quester is made by U-Boat Worx and is a series of submersibles, (one, two and four-seater). The mini-submarine could revolutionise the tourism industry, providing the basis for a new worldwide network of high-end underwater tourist ventures and it is hoped that the new larger craft will also appeal to the corporate market.

The configuration of the ship allows the submersible to act as a normal boat on the surface.  The C-Questers are called one-atmosphere ‘dry’ submersibles, meaning that passengers will stay in a normal one-bar dry environment, similar to what we have on land. This means it is possible to rapidly return to the surface without the risk of decompression problems.
