U-Boat Worx takes great pride in creating these very versatile underwater crafts, which can be used for various purposes. The submersibles can be operated from yachts, at tourist ventures, used for research missions and for private recreation. All models are classed by the esteemed Germanischer Lloyd Classification Society.
