[PSUBS-MAILIST] WOW!!! Cool Idea "was" Sub form as a float ship normal

[caribsub@coqui.net]

Bill,
The Proteus carries up to 14 divers on the outside, fore and aft deck, this is a
unique experience that one diver will never forget diving WITH the boat , not
FROM the boat, imagine going down strapped to your seat with a 45 tons boat,
then under the water they leave the ship to swim around, to return on deck for
resurfacing with the boat. what a ride, only for experienced divers though.
People from inside the cabin, not being divers can observe the outboard activity
and talk to the divers, there is no bubble here, i dont know what the Mr
dave....who is referring to, the cabin is ambient pressure DRY cabin .
I have been diving with dry ambient subs for years, taking passengers from 10 to
85 years old. I dont remember anyone exploding. passengers breath air under
pressure at 2 or 3 atms and there is absolutely no problems with that. divers
do it all the time.
Buoyancy and depth control is set with VBT's and vertical thrusters totaling
2,000 kg thrust and 4 dive plans.
propulsion provided by 2 x jet drives, 1 meter diameter to provide thrust from 0
to 3 knts under the water, and up to 25 knts surface.
propulsion with diesel engine and electric drive, hydraulic transmission to the
jet drives, no shaft.
360 deg retractable scanning sonar, underwater speaker, 30 ft telescopic masts
with radar, camera persicope, 5 cameras on the hull for perimeter observation.
2 gensets to recharge the 20 tons of batteries, 2 x 24 CFM custom water cooled
compressor to refill the 24 x 440 CuFt air cylinders, air analysis monitoring
computer, GPS. underwater doppler navigation system, TV, DVD, tracphone,
bathroom, air conditionning. are only a few of the features
All together a beautiful machine. all i know is that i will have more people
wanting to riding in my sub that in mr dave ...who' s  sub that he will never
build anyways.
mr dave...who does not understand that Marketing is a technique . in marketing
there is "market", if you dont have a market there is nothing to marketing 
regardless of the millions$$ you could put in.
I have a market i got orders so i provide, my products market themselves.
i am introducing my Scubajet, a "back pack" diver propulsion vehicle with 2
miniature water jets, no propellers , hands free, 5 knts, 130lbs of thrust,
carbon fiber shell.
I am building a test pool facility with the first training submarine pilot
school. the pool will be completed in 6 months, 45 ft deep, 100 ft long, air
conditionned, 2 x 30 tons cranes.
I know i am on the other side of the planet from you guys i do appreciate your
support, i am looking to organize a sub convention end 2006, if anyone is
interested let me know, Mr Dave...who dont even think about it, you will not
even pass the airport.

Herve,

If you ever bring your ambient sub yachts to the Tampa, Florida area, I would be
honored if I could be one of the divers riding it on the outside.

I doubt if you will have to worry about any old blue haired grandmothers wanting
to ride in the cabin. If you had designed this only as a passenger tour sub then

you obviously would not have had  positions for divers on the outside and would
have made the enclosed cabin larger. Even though your ambient subs cannot go
deeper

than normal scuba divers go, surely these must be the rolls royce's of ambient
subs. Please keep us informed of your progress with them and thanks for adding
another aspect

to submarine exploration and pleasure.

Kindest Regards,

Bill Akins.
