ABOUT C-EXPLORER 3

Intended for true explorers, safety, performance, comfort and visibility are at the core of the C-Explorer 3 design. U-Boat Worx wanted to create a submarine that could give you the freedom to explore sites on the ocean floor that have seldom, if ever, been visited by divers. Thousands of forgotten wrecks, numerous marine species and spectacular coral reefs await.

A submersible exploring a sunken shipwreck, with coral and marine life covering the vessel's structure in clear blue water.

Two passengers plus one pilot can enjoy 360° panoramic views at depths of up to 300 meters aboard this state-of-the-art submersible. Ideal for private exploration for yacht owners or charterers, the C-Explorer 3 can also be used by those staying ashore or for scientific research projects. If visiting the Mediterranean, support vessel ALK can be chartered as the mothership for launch and recovery, but the C-Explorer 3 can be transported to your private or charter yacht anywhere in the world, provided your yacht is equipped with the necessary space and equipment for submersible operations.
