computer model of Capt Nemo's Nautilus. Bill Akins.
Bill,
I don't know what it would take to build a full sized Nautilus, or even
if it could be done. After all, it is a fictional submarine. I
would imagine one would need a complete shipyard, and in that case I suppose
this program would help to the extent that it would enable the user to turn
the image around on his computer and see what it looks like from various
angles. It doesn't tell us things like how much all that stuff inside
the submarine would weigh, though, or if the sub would even float with all
those things in it. This program is a "computer model" that someone
made, and it allows us to examine the Nautilus to some extent on a
computer screen. As far as that being of much value to ship
builder, I don't know.
I like it for what it is, but someone needing more information might be
disappointed. I don't think it was intended as an engineering
reference.

Thanks Jim.
Would you say this computer model would be
helpful to anyone wanting to build a full size working replica? Not
that I would, just curious.
Kindest regards,
Bill Akins.

Bill,
I bought this program. The interior is entirely from the
program maker's own imagination, and does not actually represent the
Disney Nautilus. However, the sub does look very nice
externally. I was happy with what I got for my money, and can
recommend it to others who are interested in this particular
design..
Cheers!
