I call it Nutrition Analyzer, and no, it won't work on a phone. It's really a desktop app and needs a screen at least 1366 pixels wide to work.

Hmm, it has a "SAM verticle launch system" according to the brochure. Wonder why you would need that on a yacht?
|
|

|
|
Because Sam's a pain in the @rse.

Ha!
The only downside is that he hasn't done anything I can vote up!

But he has been around for 13 years doing basically nothing.

If you got the money the real question becomes "why not?"

It must be a drug smugglers wet dream.

Agreed.

Not to mention a threat to US Navy and civilian vessels alike, should this technology fall into the wrong hands. We need a common sense government who would stop wasteful and economically divisive endeavors such as these.

I doubt that the US Navy has that much to fear, as the model shown doesn't look like the fastest or stealthiest of submarines. Must be pretty drunk to miss that one on the sonar.
The US Navy have more reasons to fear this one: Sweden Has A Sub That Is So Deadly The US Navy Hired It To Play Bad Guy[^]
Civilian vessels might be a different story, both from a collision point of view and if used by pirates.
A terrorist's wet dream would be a model equipped with Tomahawk missiles.
And where there is money there is a way. Weapons have been sold to both sides of any conflict for ages.
Governments make money of that too, at least in the short term.

The USN and RN pretty much tracked every Russian sub while at sea without the Russians knowing they were up their baffles. These leisure subs won't exactly be hard to detect. If anything they'd probably attract a bit too much attention.

meh.
I always wanted one of these[^]

I wonder how many "kids" drowned in that thing. Still, cool none the less.

A friend of mine works for a company specialized in furniture for super yachts, the kind where a chair or table costs six figure amounts.
Those filthy, stinking rich guys don't even appreciate it.
They once spent a year looking for a rare tree of the right size with the perfect structure to create a really exclusive table that the customer requested. So when they finally found the tree and made it into a $100,000+ table they got a phone call... This guy's new girlfriend (a 30-40 year younger, dispensable, gold digger) didn't like it very much, so if they could come and paint the table white! 
And then there was this guy who wanted his entire engine room covered in gold. THE FRIGGIN ENGINE ROOM!!!
Yeah, it's a weird world we're living in...

Hell, if you took a year to find a tree to make a table I'd ordered, I's hit you with so many penalties that I'd get it for fourpence!

That's what he did. Then the girlfriend happened.

What exactly happens to the water in the pool when it submerges? Or is that how you fill the pool to begin with?

This looks much like a hoax.
The company's location in Graz (Austria, not Australia - no direct connection to the ocean) adds to my assumption.
Plus, all "images" seem to be renderings only.
A well done hoax, IMO.

Yep, agree.. got diesel engines but can stay submerged for "weeks".. don't think so.
Subs tend to get pretty stinky once people are aboard and diesel engines are running too. Not really what I'd call "luxury" 
I came into this game for the action, the excitement. Go anywhere, travel light, get in, get out, wherever there's trouble, a man alone. Now they got the whole country sectioned off, you can't make a move without a form.

They also appear to be the bigger than any other submarine ever made with features which make absolutely no sense. (The windows crack me up.)
