[PSUBS-MAILIST] Commercial sub in NZ

["Karl & Shirin Fuller" <fullerk@voyager.co.nz>]

Hi Vance,
You asked me weeks ago about that sub operation in NZ and I had lost the
article. Just found it and will re-type it for you.

[Submarine will visit coral cathederal.

 New Zealand company Submarine Adventures has bought what is the "Rolls
Royce" of tourist submarines for it's Milford Sound business.
 The American built XPC1501, with large viewing domes, was bought from a
wealthy American yacht owner who used it for his own private recreation,
company director Philip Mladnov said.
 Submarine adventures announced in September that it planned to take
tourists to the 305M deep coral cathederal in Mildord sound. Since then,
about 85 New Zealanders have invested more than $1.6 million in what will be
the first deep-sea dive tourist operation in the Southern Hemisphere.]

Who makes this sub and what are some details of it ? (US sub ?)
