Re: [PSUBS-MAILIST] Alan Winnick Explorer sub



    For what it's worth, Stanley Plastics quoted me a little over $300 US for just a simple 1.5" thick, 12" diameter flat viewport.  I don't remember if that was certified and tested, but I opted to go that route as it seems a bit less expensive than a dome.  Eight viewports for around $2500-can't beat it.

Hi - Stanley Plastic for example make this size domes - the last I
requested was about 8000 USD with certification and test - maybe about
5000-6000 without. But there are other non certificate builders make
something in this size for 3000. Depents on diameter and how deep you
want to go.. shallow water maybe less.
Look in the archive files - there are amazing amount of informations..
look for "domes" or "arcylic" or simillar.
