Own your very own Yellow Submarine!!

Used for Discovery channel Shark Week 2008. One man sub for sale by owner = call, text or email Shenoa. Asking $5000.00

One of a Kind - Custom built in 2008 for a production company to film underwater scenes, such as "Shark Week". the Sub uses a Scuba Tank for the internal air supply, and two electric motors with propellers to navigate. in can easily be launched from a boat using a hoisting davit system. This is a very unique Sub and would be a great addition to a Yacht, or used in a commercial application.

The SportSub Solo, recently featured on Ultimate Air Jaws during the Discovery Channel's Shark Week, is a wet submarine. Meaning that the pilot's head is his or her only body part not exposed to water. Noggins are encased in a dome-shaped, water-tight air pocket atop the watercraft, which receives a constant flow of oxygen at depths of up to 30 feet, for dives times of up to 60 minutes. A duo of thrusters allow for precise control and maneuverability, with the sub capable of rotating in its own length, hovering, and flying straight up and down--a range of movements similar to those of a helicopter.

Two marine batteries power the SportSub Solo, and help clock its weight in at 150 pounds. The kit comes standard with a complete set of all accessories necessary to operate it, less the a SCUBA tank for the air supply, dive computer, compass, and battery charger to recharge the vessel's batteries.
