FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla.,
April 17, 2013 /PRNewswire/
-- Brownie's Marine Group, Inc. (OTCBB: BWMG), a leading
developer, manufacturer and distributor of highly specialized dive
and water safety products, today announced that it has secured the
sale of a Triton 3300/3 submersible.
The denomination 3300/3 refers to the depth rating of 3,300 feet
for up to three people. Triton builds competitively superior
submersibles uniquely suited to yacht and exploration ship
integration. Triton production models are available in
two and three person versions; custom, multi-passenger arrangements
are also available. Depth ratings of 1,000 foot, 3,300 foot
and 36,000 feet complete the offerings to "FOD" / full-ocean-depth.
The 3,300/3 is the most popular version among the Triton clientele
to date.
"Submarines have recently gained in popularity in the private
yachting market and for research, film and exploration teams. By
far most of the waters around the globe are unexplored and still
hold untold wonders to be discovered," said Robert Carmichael, Brownie's Marine Group
CEO.
The superior design of the Triton Submarine is coming of age at
a time when more and more yacht owners and scientists take an
active role in documenting the undersea realm. One such expedition
recently led to the visual, live confirmation of the existence of
the giant squid. The full story and video as documented by
the Discovery channel is available at:
www.browniesmarinegroup.com/submarines/triton-subs/.
The Triton Submersibles are particularly well suited for this
growing market as they encompass many competitive superiorities
including:
- Specially designed to be operated from larger yachts, and small
expedition ships due to their super-compact footprint, unsurpassed
efficiency, and unique ability to exchange passengers without being
re-loaded to the deck of the ship.
- The specially designed acrylic sphere is optically matched to
sea-water and provides an unobstructed view in all intuitive
directions, yielding a very comfortable and natural experience,
even for the novice.
- Catamaran hull design and top mounted hatch provides incredible
surface stability and freeboard, providing for easy exchange of
passengers while resting on the surface making it far more cost
effective to own and operate. Typical submarines must be
hoisted back onto/into the deck of the Mothership for exchange of
passengers, often an uncomfortable, resource intensive, and time
consuming task. The Triton's simply integrate into a yacht program
like a tender.
"The collaboration between Triton Submarines and Brownie's
Marine Group is a natural and powerful symbiosis as Brownie's
Marine Group already has extensive reach and relations with the
yacht industry, yacht owners, and exploration teams around the
world. Brownie's resources are uniquely geared to supply everything
needed for their diving pleasures or explorations, from equipment
for small leisurely dives all the way to exploration grade, deep
venturing submarines and all support systems in
between," Mr. Carmichael explained.
