RE: [PSUBS-MAILIST] Luxury Sub News Article



I found a submarine that US subs have built.  Or so i thought.

http://www.salmonbaymarina.com/spec-1987Submarine32-photo.htm

But with a bit more searching, it appears to have been built by M-subs UK  http://www.msubs.com/s101.htm
and
Marlin subs, which i assume is the same thing.   http://www.datsite.co.uk/marlin_submarines/s101.htm

:)

Jon,




I had wondered about the "secrecy" part of the article myself. It doesn't seem to jibe with the "one up on you" mega-yacht world. Your assessment seems right on track.
