Thank you very much for your information!Good morning, trident.
That is the first device that actually navigated underwater with no military purpose, invented by Narciso Monturiol (Figueras 1818 - Barcelona 1885) in 1859. Was the “ICTINEO” the fish-ship.

best regards John,

Thank you very much for your information! I will study it deeply. I am going to make a 40-50CM long submarine for my collection in approximate proportion. Anyway,thanks again for sharing this valuable information!And another little thing:
I wrote about Ictineo II and N. Monturiol could not go through with this project.
But he had planned to make the Ictineo III and then, we can understand why Jules Verne was interested very closely ...
