Thank you David for talking about the subs. For me, having a sub on a yacht would be a necessity, just like the tender. Even though I am a certified diver, there are just too many places I want to visit that are just beyond Scuba. It also would allow me to show the non divers in the family the beauty of what lies below the surface.

For the billionaire who has everything, the ambition should be to carry a yacht on a sub. Challenge with that would probably be the yacht because there are already submarines with docks and hangars to carry other vessels. Snag would be the yacht would also effectively need to be submersible, or you'd only be able to launch it while surfaced. And where's the fun in that? (Also check out the latest ROVs, they've been coming down in cost and capability, so it's relatively (in yacht-money terms) to get an ROV and let guests explore from the surface)

well there are 3 major problems with the idea of using retired Navy subs, Navy subs: A. are just about as far away from luxury as you get, these are very cramped weapon's delivery platforms B. outside of Politiking, the Navy rarely retires submarines that *haven't* got extensive use out of, most of these boats at the end of their service life are heavily worn out. C. Any attempt to make significant modifications to fix either of the first two problems (or add windows as you suggest) would ultimately be more expensive then just building a new submarine.

David, that was a sic dig at Nick, Lmao! Your snarky replies to the comments were infinitely more entertaining than seeing the sub. Thanx, and keep it coming!

Thank you boss… I appreciate the love. My buddy, back in our early twenties had worked to retirement, bought a house, couple cars… he hadn’t gotten married or anything yet. He came to me asking if I thought he should join the military… I told him make money, join the military, get any work you can, invest in and flip property… I told him, the next time you talk to me you’ll tell me how you’re living your retirement now and you just added a tenth zero to your worth… we’re late thirties now, I see him after a long time away, he shows me all the houses he owns, tells me he’s living his retirement, and he’s added a tenth zero. Bro, my boy came to me for and took my advice, and then he made money… I use that story every time I want to impress someone I’m gonna work for… my buddy just told me to come visit him in Puerto Rico to see his house out there, and I just came up on a bunch of time.

Make the noise signature of these submarines as loud as possible, so no military submarine ever mistakes one of these subs for another military one! What a beautiful boat! 😍 I know a few retired Royal Navy submarine Captains who would be up for commanding these types of submarines as I run a Veteran's group on Facebook 🙂

I was on subs when I was in the USN late 70's to the mid 80's The Idea of having a yacht submarine to play Captain Nemo is something I have always dreamed of yes I am a Jules Verne fan.

I agree about the lottery's question because yachts do suck the money LOL. Maybe if you buy a small boat it would be ok lol But that answer in investing money in a business that could make more money or hay lol is a great answer David:) Submarines would be cool also to go on.

the main issue I see, is looking at their website is they are very slow (3-6 knots depending on which model), and while for pleasure expropriation or scientific research it is fine, as a Yacht, they would have to get the speeds closer to military submarine speeds (slow ones are 15knots, many are 20+). Great concept, but maybe the technology for a luxury sub with large glass windows with a reliable speed level isnt there yet. However I really want to explore some reefs with their explorer subs, if I had money.

I hope if they make a 35 meter sub, they add some fun and drama, like a window with a sign "don't poke the glass" and have a water leak with a crack that forms to scare the bajesus out of people.

This will be the ultimate dinner cruise.

Fit it with a diesel-electric system and significant tankage, and lose the tether to the dock altogether. Fit the interior out as a personal residence vs a restaurant attraction, and just disappear into the depths. Maybe even cover the top deck with sealed solar panels, so you can surface and recharge a bit with the sun. Stormy weather on the surface? No problem, just dive a few hundred feet and forget about it. Explore the wonders of the sea in peace and quiet, while sipping your favorite beverage and listening to your favorite tune. Imagine the serenity of travel in something like that. You'd have to have Elon Musk-level money to make it happen, but it would be absolutely amazing, and worth every penny. Can you imagine the exclusivity of chartering something like this? So many possibilities. U.S. Subs did something like this about a decade ago, at least as a concept. No idea if any ever made it into production, though. I hope this one does. I'd love to see it made a reality, even if I only get to see it on KZread.

This is some serious Jules Vern stuff, right here!

LOL, great video David. I've always dreamt of being able to take submarine "Diving" tours up and down the east coast of Australia (and the West coast if I can find the money for a 2nd sub!). But my 'tours' would have a twist. Passengers would not only look out the windows in awe at the destinations they chose to go to, they would be able to don diving equipment and exit the sub once we arrive at the site/s. Then they could complete a proper scuba dive in real time only coming back to the sub to decompress at their leisure. It would have a Jacuzzi, hot showers, a sealable plunge pool usable at any depth, enough airlocks for 12 people to rotate through their dives, a bar for those not diving, a theatre for showing educational videos on sea life etc., and a fully equiped kitchen and mess for meals. A lot of dive charter companies can NOT operate in rough seas. However, a sub can bypass all that surface drama whilst being as shallow as just 6m, it can then deliver divers to their destinations without the fuss of hammering through raging seas as they head out to the dive site. So ALL of the above amenities are necessary as I think people would pay good money to be able to experience such a thing. If only someone would pick up my idea. Perhaps I should start a go fund me page...

You have too many wishes.

£185 million Euromillions tonight. Surely one could afford a Silent 60 or 80 and all its (hopefully greatly reduced) running costs (especially if you decide to live onboard for the rest of your life)? It looks like one could just about single-hand that - but with 185 million maybe a couple of staff wouldn't go amiss - and hire a Captain for longer trips. And then lease it out for a few weeks of the year to cover those extras while you go visit the family in the mountains. I lived on a 60ft blue water sailing yacht for a year and a half. Cost a fair whack but offset by other land lubber costs I didn't have to pay. It's the depreciation that stings - if you sell - and those everyday individual items which fail one by one sure do add up over time. And when that time to sell comes - everything needs to be ship shape if you want a sale at all... or lose even more off the sale price selling as a 'project' for the new owner.

You just need an underwater lair crewed by beautiful people and armed with space based lasers to go with it. :D

Dreamed of making my own sub since I was 10 years old. I would just buy one, but I'm short about 250 million dollars. Substantial cash gifts gladly accepted.

HA! PirateChucker and I could share a yacht (with all our furry friends) and get along just splendidly (except we'd need two masters) 🤣 Thanks for the bit about personal submarines, it's a subject I've been following for years, a truly fascinating way of exploring our oceans to the fullest!

You have convinced me in getting a yacht. Problem is that the government doesn't pay teachers enough to afford a yacht.

I would love to know what the list is of all the expenses to run a yacht over the course of a year. I would have imagined it was the gas and crew expenses, but then im sure insurance supplies for basic maintenance would be involved too, so what are those "exactly"? Can you make a video on it, or at the very least add it to a video you're making? Im sure it would be something that everyone would want to hear about.

The sub idea is great, I am sure it would be popular. There is one very serious concern. I'm a former US Navy Submariner, Ohio Class. SSBN737. Once in a while, while on patrol and submerged, we would get nudged or bumped by blue whales. You could feel the contact but it never damaged anything. The whale weighs about 150 tons and the submarine just shy of 17,000 tons. The whales do this because when they see something they think is another whale or potential mate, and it doesn't answer the whale bumps you as if to say "Um Hello, talking to you". What's going to happen if this custom sub gets in that situation, a 150 ton nudge could cause serious damage.

Wasn't there a company that started this trend on building luxury Superyacht style Submarine the company was called MIGALOO M5 - 165 M PRIVATE SUBMERSIBLE SUPERYACHT Statement of Christian Gumpold, CEO and founder of MIGALOO: "We believe that Submersible Superyachts and innovative surface yachts are the future of yachting.

This needs that underwater city to go with it.

The quote I remember is “if it flies, floats or fucks it’s cheaper to rent”.

BE STRONG ENOUGH TO BE KIND

If you win the lottery don’t buy a yacht most honest statement ever uttered can’t believe it came from a broker😂😂😂😂😂😂😳

cost no object I would not even own my dream yacht for more than 3 years and if I had my way it would still be a fractional ownership. My strategy for yacht ownership would be to explore the seas for 3 years as often as possible and then retire the yacht to recoup as much cash as I can.

Somebody will buy one of these subs reconfigure the inside and turn it into the 1st. Submarine Brothel, or has that been done before?

Hi David, after hearing your answer to the lottery question I am interested to know if you think pure electric yachts like Silent Yachts should be included in the "don't bother" category. Without the fuel cost (or at least significantly reduced if you cruise in less than fair weather) and without the engine upkeep, do you think they're still not worth it? This is something my husband and I have dreamed of for a while so I was disappointed to hear you, the only yacht expert I know of, dash my dreams. 😕😜 Am I really that far wrong about Silent Yachts?

A 35M sub with a Michelin star restaurant and a casino. Great for weddings. SOME of these things are incongruous. The price for just the sub ride alone would probably be astronomical. Then food from a Michelin star restaurant on top of that. I don't imagine they stay underwater more than 6-8 hours at most. So the cost for such a trip when broken down by hour.. probably would be expensive.Or if it's a casino, they won't want you to leave. Either way, I don't see this as being the next entertainment venue. Short ridea with a casino and maybe a regular restaurant pumping out standard fare and you got something. Casinos make money.. Right now, they just got their heads in the clouds, or under water.

What percentage of your assets is a "safe" amount when purchasing a yacht if you intend to spend, let's say, 10% of a year on your yacht. This is assuming your remaining assets are invested with a conservative 8% growth annually. (ie: won $600m after taxes, debts paid off, house bought, etc. $600m to buy/maintain yacht and invest the rest)

Hi David, Absolutely loving the videos, especially the walk arounds of some of the most beautiful yachts on the planet. There is one thing that I would like to question, in the video of the 35m submarine you said, and I’m sorry if I don’t quote accurately, that even with a lottery win there is no way we mortals could afford to but a superyacht. Ok the current jackpot is €230,000,000 Boat purchase €60,000,000 Annual running costs €6,000,000 (10%) So therefore over a 10 year period total costs €120,000,000 Balance left €110,000,000 (not including interest, return on investments, etc) Obviously if you win less than say €120,000,000 a superyacht is out of the question but a super win (fingers crossed) it would be possible, and to be honest in my case very probable 😂😂 Keep up the excellent work Andy

Imagine a yacht that has luxury of the old floating palaces, where you experiment and mix-and-match decor styles. You could use the overall size of a liner for some really exciting spaces since the goal is no longer to carry masses of people. All the tech of tomorrow, hidden behind the veneers of yesterday.

I agree about treating crew more like family, than employees. I see so many videos where they talk about keeping the crew hidden from the guests. Why? If you are not proud of your crew, then you will get a bad crew.

And you killed my dreams about winning the lottery and not buying a Yacht...it is my one dream(

This makes me think Octopussy needed a better sub.

There is very good reason why submarines don't have windows. because you can't see too far under the sea, except for very few area with very clear water. same reason why pleasure boats don't have glass bottom to let people see under the boat.

Having spent a military career in Submarines, I found this interesting

That rendering looked like it had seating for about 30 max...

Would make the perfect home for a couple. Line the outer hull with flexible solar so you could surface for a few hours or days and recharge the batteries. Peace and quite. No storms to worry about. No snow to shovel. No lawns to mow. Surface near an uninhabited Bahama island and camp for a few days. Think I would recover some of my money by locating and recovering downed ships and equipment like in the Alaskan crab fishing areas.

Well, in the US, the current MegaMillions lottery is up to $420M. With a single payment takeaway after taxes of about $240M. How about I spend $50M on the Yacht and invest the rest to cover maintenance, fees, crew, provisions, fuel and the rest? Would that work?

No hotshots were harmed - or fired - in the making of this video.

Subs take fall out shelters to the next level.
