Well, now is the perfect time to  bust out the cheque book because steel is as low as it is going to be according to EE  and they are pretty dead over there.Hank

 No diesel. It will not operate independent of support capable of charging the batteries at the surface, though this may be accomplished by a portable generator if need be.It may be left in the water (towed, secured alongside, loaded and offloaded etc.) for the duration of an expedition, but is not intended for long-term submergence, such as seasonal operation.  Crane, A-frame or boat lift retrieval will be employed for storage and necessary maintenance.Sean

Do you intend on leaving the sub in the water full time (seasonal)  Alsso sounds like it could have a diesel engine.Hank

 Ambitious p! roject,subject to change as funding dictates. 4 person lockout submersible (pilot, supervisor, 2 divers). Large for a PSub, but sized for road / intermodal transport. Not ramp launchable. Operating depth of 600m, safety factor TBD. 48 hour mission, 72 hour reserve. Built to full ABS / GL compliance with documented tests (NDT, strain gauging, material and proof testing) to enable classification by engaging a surveyor in the future, but not classed at this time. When construction is completed, it will live in Vancouver - my second (first?) home.
