This bespoke model sports a striking metallic bronze colour scheme and whilst being the pinnacle of U-Boat Worx’s design and engineering prowess, bears the same styling that makes this Dutch brand so iconic. “While each submarine is a feat of engineering, we are now known for building personalised masterpieces that provide the epitome of luxury for the owner to experience the ocean’s depths,” comments Roy Heijdra, Marketing Manager at U-Boat Worx.
Erik Hassleman, Commercial Director at U-Boat Worx, described this milestone as “reflecting years of hard work, innovation, and close collaboration with clients.” And he’s excited about the future, “looking ahead, we’re committed to working even more closely with our clients to unlock incredible experiences, expeditions, and new discoveries.”
The Super Yacht Sub 3 places the operator at the heart and full acrylic viewports offer unobstructed vision. The sub is equipped with lithium-ion batteries that enable longer dive times, expedited charging, and require minimal maintenance. An intuitive user-interface and operating system ensures easeof-use, and ergonomic seating, high-quality craftsmanship and climate control provide luxurious comfort.
The Sub 3 features U-Boat Worx’s proprietary safety systems and automatic resurfacing mechanism, and high-precision thrusters see this craft achieve fantastic manoeuvrability.
Widely regarded as the world leader in personal submarines and a pioneer in this sector, U-Boat Worx has succeeded in making the ocean more accessible for private explorers and scientific researchers alike. Two decades on from the launch of their first craft, the Super Yacht Sub 3 continues to push the boundaries and revolutionise the way people access the underwater world.
Compact and lightweight, with flexible launch and recovery options, this submersible is perfectly attuned to superyacht integration and stowage
