I've always been kind of amazed at how many people actually do build their own submarines (and in total awe and respect of their skills and ingenuity).

Peter Madsen's KRAKA is one of my favorites, but I also want a Bionic Dolphin

Why spend a night aboard the Cavalla when you could be curled up in the fetal position in that baby?

I'd love to know when this came out, so I could figure out how much it would cost today! Very sweet though, I find hobby subs very cool. I've promised myself to build one when I retire in 40 years.
