Sam Verhouden, Commissioning Engineer & Submersible Pilot at U-Boat Worx, speaks with Max Scott at MYS2022. Comparing the feeling of diving in submarine NEMO to “flying”, Verhouden describes the otherworldly quality of submarine diving. Verhouden also speaks of other subs made by U-Boat Worx in which he describes getting close up to shipwrecks where there is typically more sea life. He explains the reason behind NEMO’s surprisingly low 590,000€ price tag and the available customisation that can elevate the pilot’s experience of submarine diving.

Describing the ease at which NEMO can be commanded, Verhouden talks about U-Boat Worx’s submarine centre in Curaçao where pilots receive training and U-Boat Worx’s boats are tested. Please see the full interview below, or click here for the link.
