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.

Cool! I want one too :)

"For the man who has everything.."

I can see Lars in one of those. A yellow submarine, or course.

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

I know!!! That would be so much fun!!!

Plus all the cool sea creatures you could observe. It'd be like National Geographic!

I want my yellow submarine!!
