[PSUBS-MAILIST] “THE HOLMBERG” SUBMARINE

[irox <irox@ix.netcom.com>]

Hi,

I stumbled across this sub while searching from something
else.  Does anybody know more about it?  Any more pictures
any where?


I've cut'n'pasted the following from there web site, since
I couldn't link to the right pages:

"Designed and built by Birger and Michael Holmberg
This submarine, a father and son project, can go down to 150' and carries a ton of fuel. Self-sustaining, it contains a kitchen, head, and bunks for two."

"The Holmberg Submarine emerges out of the frigid waters off the east coast of southern Sweden on one of its first test dives."

Kind of interesting in that it doesn't appear to have
a traditional cylinder style pressure hull.  It looks
very pretty, I wonder how functional it is.

Cheers,
  Ian.
