Objective: to conceive, to realize the first French submarine with muscular propulsion to take part in the big challenge "International Submarine Race" which takes place all the 2 years in Florida.
Technological objective:
Speed above 10 Km / h.
Optimized maneuverability: front-rear, right-left, up-down, angle of attack, surface navigation.
Interest of the pedal submarine:
Movement speed greater than webbed diver
Extra Bottle Carrying gives more underwater autonomy.
Surface navigation to reach a place of exploration.
The combination of its three elements make the Scubster an exploration tool available to divers and scientists from the oceanographic world.
Name: Scubster
Type: Muscle-powered pocket submarine
Length: 3,5 meters
Thruster: 2 propellers
Yellow color

Hello Franck, and thanks for the comment / question
The tests are in the form of submersible cards and reusable many times.
The goal is to carry out the test at a depth of 2m (reference) and then at the maximum desired depth, thereafter there are different scales if you are “correct”, “not terrible”, or “totally narcotic”.
These are simple tests (labyrinth, “basic calculations” with a little addition that you will discover! Among others.)
for analysis: either the number of errors or the time taken is used as a control.
there is also a solution, in order not to do all the tests it is to try to carry out the greatest number of tests in 2 minutes…. the number of successes will also give you an idea.
if you need more info, don't hesitate to send me an email. I can also send the pdf notice on request.
See you soon

Hello, in fact the race will take place this year in the Bethesda basins in Maryland USA and not in Florida.
As a sponsor, we are mainly looking for a financial sponsor who can support us for a few years.
