PCT No. PCT/EP95/00084 Sec. 371 Date Apr. 16, 1996 Sec. 102(e) Date Apr. 16, 1996 PCT Filed Jul. 5, 1995 PCT Pub. No. WO96/01207 PCT Pub. Date Jan. 18, 1996Submersible boat is capable of navigating both on the water surface and submerged, the diving taking place by dynamic effect when the operator requires it, the boat having a catamaran type structure, comprising two side floats which are maintained partially under the water-line while its cabin is kept totally above the water-line when the boat navigates at the water surface. Fins situated between the floats provide for the steerability of the boat, both submerged and at the water surface, while the thrust is generated by a pair of propellers situated at the lower end of the floats and actuated by diesel engines when the boat navigates on top of the water or is submerged in shallow waters, but in deep waters the engines are substituted by electric motors run by batteries.
