Mellow submarine
Ortega MK 1C submersible
Reinvent yourself as a Bond villain with this sleek submersible. The Ortega is inspired by a motorised, submersible canoe used by British special forces in the Second World War. Powered by two 10KWh electric thrusters, the Dutch-made Ortega can reach nine knots (17kph) on the surface and 11 knots (20kph) under water. It’s 6.5 metres long and carries three passengers. It is equipped with on-board breathing apparatus and a heads-up display but sadly no periscope. Range is 148km and it can dive to depths of 95 metres. €tbc, www.ortega-submersibles.com
