The MP26-100 Tourist Submarine, a versatile and medium-sized vessel, is meticulously designed to host 26 passengers for a unique undersea exploration experience. This submarine excels in reliability, ease of maintenance, and transportability, adhering to the stringent standards set by DnV (Det norske Veritas) and ABS (American Bureau of Shipping). Its primary function is to offer conventional one-hour dive turnarounds for submarine tourism, although its flexible design allows for reconfiguration to serve various purposes, such as offshore casinos, novelty restaurants, underwater hotels, and even as ultra-secure meeting venues.

Capable of diving to depths of 100 meters, the MP26-100 is maneuvered through a single joystick and thumb wheels, showcasing a user-friendly interface that enhances the diving experience. The vessel’s key operating systems are ingeniously located inside the pressure vessel to reduce maintenance demands, emphasizing the submarine’s design efficiency. Moreover, the submarine’s compatibility with a support container and its ability to be transported within a 40″ container frame underscores its operational versatility and ease of mobilization.

Operationally, the MP26-100 is poised to make a significant impact on submarine tourism by diving at captivating offshore sites to explore shipwrecks, marine life, and coral reefs, enhancing the visibility of these wonders with powerful underwater lights and sophisticated sonar and camera equipment. With the potential to perform up to ten dives per day, this submarine offers educational, scientific, and leisure dives, promising an enriching experience for all passengers.

The onshore and offshore logistical arrangements for the MP26-100, including maintenance workshops, reservation offices, and presentation facilities, are well-thought-out to support the submarine’s daily operations efficiently. These facilities ensure that every aspect of the tourist experience, from booking to post-dive refreshments and souvenirs, is catered for seamlessly.

In summary, the MP26-100 Tourist Submarine stands as a testament to advanced engineering and thoughtful design, promising to redefine underwater tourism with its versatility, safety, and unparalleled underwater exploration capabilities.
