You can buy personal submarines now
I want one of these:
http://www.ananova.com/news/story/sm_2194391.html The world's first personal submarines have been launched with a price tag of £65,000. Dutch designers claim the subs will make owners feel like they are "flying through the water". The one-seater version is 9ft long, and the 11ft model seats two. Owners who really want to impress can get go-faster stripes and custom paint jobs. The tiny C-Quester can dive to 50 metres and cruise beneath the waves at up to four knots using electric-propelled thrusters. It can stay underwater for two-and-ahalf hours straight or 36 hours in the event of an emergency. The vessel's high-strength pressure hull allows the pilot to submerge in a totally dry cockpit and surface straight from the maximum depth without risk of decompression problems. Makers U-Boat Worx, which took three years to perfect the subs, said: "Never before has it been possible for the public to explore the underwater world with a one-atmosphere submarine." But budding Jacques Cousteaus will need to get an underwater pilot's license before they get behind the wheel. |

that's pretty cool. 50 meters = 164ft for the non-metric folks would be even cooler if it could go like 1/4mile or more though

Well, at 164 feet you're already below what is considered recreational diving depths by PADI for open water divers, so that's pretty cool. This would allow you to get down to some wrecks that you wouldn't be able to otherwise unless you're a tech diver. Pretty cool  |
