The brother and sister team has finally water dipped the sub and done preliminary submergence and thruster testing. The announcements came out today on social media (FB, etc). It's worth looking them up if you haven't done so already. I talked to them for awhile at UI last year, and this thing is seriously impressive. 1200 meter depth capability with a big window, no less, and it only weighs 5 tons. That's pretty good going for a crew of three. Plus some really good looking lithium polymer technology. 10 kw/148 volts from a single box that isn't all that big or heavy (which they are advertising as for sale separately). Overall, it's a real beauty. The builder/designer is a fiberglass guy, and the fairings and whatnot are sheer art. Very nice.
