U-Boat Worx ramps-up NEMO production of private submersibles
Dutch submersible manufacturer U-Boat Worx has commenced the volume production of its pioneering one and two-seater NEMO submersibles creating a 40% price reduction in the process.
The NEMO 1 and 2, which boast a 100m depth rating, now carry the seriously affordable price point of around $NZ 1- 1.2million. These prices are 80% lower than anything else available in the submersible market today.
The NEMOs are the only private serial produced submarines in the world. By embarking on its new scalability model, U-Boat Worx can deliver even greater efficient build times, competitive pricing and an unrivalled owner experience supported by global customer service.
The NEMO will be available from stock in 2023. The aim is to have 1,000 submarines in operation by 2030.”
The NEMO’s lightweight and compact credentials create a turnkey solution ideally suited to yachts of all sizes. That said, private submarine ownership for non-yacht owners is also now possible thanks to the also affordable range of complementary beach launchers, towable car trailers, floating submarine houses and small support crafts developed with submarine mobilisation in mind.
Both NEMO 1 and 2 feature U-Boat Worx’ signature seamless acrylic spherical viewport, battery-powered electrical propulsion, a multitude of safety systems, air-conditioning and certification by world-renowned classification society DNV.
