David,

 

Little ones.  Not Navy subs, but the type civilians use. 

 

Thanks for the list of websites.  I looked at "plans for dummies" and found plans for a wet sub that I had seen here of late.  What was interesting was that they listed it under the heading of "wacky" projects.  I thought that said something kind of "off beat" about how some people see those who are interested in this sort of thing.  Personally, I don't think wanting to build or own a submersible is wacky at all.  

 

Best,

 

Gail
