I'm thinking small, and light enough to be trailered by the average vehicle.  The problem comes in with ballast in suh a light hull, as you noted, and if that could be solved, it might be possible to make submarines at a sane price that anyone could use.  There are some great new materials out there, if we can only find a way to achieve neutral buoyancy while using them.
