It's so absurd. Deep sea tourism is going to be something only for the .1% for a while.
They can afford a vessel that's 1000x more expensive. Your market is about 50 people. They've got unlimited money, basically.
Why cheap out and die? I just don't get it.
- philjohn 3y agoI suspect their end goal was to sell deep sea subs to the oil and gas industry, and this was a testbed.
- onlyrealcuzzo 3y agoWhy would you do that manned instead of using remote control? I'm assuming your engineering requirements for an unmanned sub would be substantially easier for a number of reasons (not needing to worry about killing someone, mainly).
- philjohn 3y agoCan't fund it with rich customers who want to see the Titanic with unmanned subs.
