review by Ron Leonard
IVC has been building these 1, 2, 3, and 6 person SportSub submersibles
since 1986, and has produced more than 200 submarines in that
time. You can find many more details and photographs, as well
as pricing, on their web site at www.sportsub.com.
What are these submarines being used for? The Olympic Organizing
Committee purchased 4 units for security and surveillance; many
of the largest yachts in the world have SportSubs aboard as
yacht toys; fire rescue teams in Brazil use them for search
and rescue; also for tourist rides in the Caribbean and on the
Great Barrier Reef in Australia. What would you use your SportSub
for?
