Just for fun: a Das Boot Experience
 
Yep, me again. I've got a college project that researches running a sub like the UC3 Nautilus as an adventure cruise ship for sub enthusiasts. There are tall sailing ship cruises and sailing boat cruises, why not a submarine cruise?

If you think this would be an interesting project, click here and let me know.

I mean, hey, if a guy can make a nice sub like the UC3, why not share the experience?

thanks
Neal

I would suspect the first question is how many can board the boat. Once the number is established then formulate what it would cost to feed the number aboard, add in the cost of diesel fuel. Fuel at 10000 gallons on the average per gallon($2.00) is $20,000.00. If it is to be a true to life uboat experience the the food should be true to life uboat grub. This would certainly cut the cost of food for bisquits, sour beef and saurkraut. Cost of insurance remains in question. I could see a range of $1200.00 to $1400.00 per head for a week. Say 50 can board(hot bunking :D) $70,000.00 total gross revenue.

I do not thing Maersk would want their container ships being stalked though:o
