      Why concept? Has it been tested or is that the next step? Very inspiring....you do good work!
      If you can cut, drill, saw, hit things and swear a lot, you're well on the way to building a working model sub.

        It's a Dennis DeBoer kit -- great products, check him out. His idea of what an 'advanced' SEAVIEW would look like. I got this kit working last year and now am working up the catalog copy and pictures so we can sell a dedicated SD and fittings kit for the thing.

          I'd be interested in the fittings kit for mine, for sure. I love the looks of that thing. Dennis did a great job on that kit. I'll be interested in seeing what the performance is like compared to the original version.

            It is a very sweet design that's for sure. But I bet that bow will still make driving her a chore!!!

              Right you are, 'Neutral' setting of the pump-jet in pitch has the thing pointed up a bit to produce the required pitch-up force needed to counteract the shovel-nose pitch-down of the design. Other than that, the model is manageable in the water submerged.

                It looks like those more streamlined fins make for better pitch & yaw along the axis too. Though as nice as she looks and I am keen on her however a Brodeen Nautilus is the next boat for yours truly... but the future is a fickle goddess.

                  You can't go wrong there, The 31" Brodeen NAUTILUS is simply magnificent!
