Luxury Private Submarine for Launch in January

The super rich will soon be able to add luxury private submarines to their collection private yachts and aircrafts.

The Neyk, a 60-ft underwater vehicle, which can accommodate up to 20 guests and reach depths of 1,640 feet; complete with a lavish lounge area, a bar, a library and a complete galley, will soon be rolling off the production line.

The submarine is fitted with a clear nose that doubles up as a 270-degree viewing area, and is controlled by joysticks in the pilot’s cockpit.

Its makers claim the sleek vessel is as “agile as a shark” with a virtually noiseless engine, and that its lighting and air conditioning systems will be custom-designed for each client’s specific needs.

The Neyk, a collaboration between Ocean Submarine and Rolls-Royce, is currently being built in the Netherlands with the first prototype expected to be presented in January 2018.

There is no word yet on its price.
