Saw this thing listed on craigslist (not my listing, no relation to seller) and thought it was super cool, though unfortunately out of my price range. Do any of you resident vintage gear experts know anything about these? Did they work well? What were they like to pilot? Who manufactured them - maybe Healthways? How rare are they?
I hope someone out there uses or preserves this rad thing. The design is so beautifully simple. If I saw someone emerge from the blue and buzz a popular wreck in this I'd just about laugh out my reg and drown.
Vintage 1963 Submarine 2 person electric submersible WOW vintage...
Edit - in case the ad goes down it reads: "Rare 1963 wet sub submarine in working condition. 2 person electric sub. This was registered in RI and comes with the old RI registration and bill of sale. 12 volt electric system with a 55 lb thrust motor. 5 forward speeds and 3 reverse. Incredibly cool....."
