"Few yachts have a 9 ton crane that can handle the Seamagine."

The SEAmagine 2-man boat only weighs about 3.5 tons, no need for a 9 ton crane.

The U-Boat Worx boats are nice if all you want to do is be underwater or look at the bottom of waves. Placing the canopy in the middle of a large disk places your viewpoint in a position where there is no visibility downward and from side to side or ahead you can only see the hull fairing. Underwater vision is refracted so much that the bottom you can see is too far away to view anything with any detail. Paste a graphic of the boat on a representation of a flat bottom and measure for yourself how far the eye is from any bottom feature.

When you scuba dive do you like looking at stuff from 20 feet away, even in the clearest of water?
