The max depth she will go to is 100 meters because we calculate a big safety margin.

Kraka went to 25 meters at the most.
Now how do you figure the 600 meters? What data are you looking at to calculate that?
Its not me who did that calculation - Peter did that - but its based in the presurehull...

25 metres would be quite sufficient for this mere mortal
