First the Coast guard shut me down (after Subpoenaing me from outside the country) and now the powers that be are shadow-banning any mention of my open letter - https://www.reddit.com/r/OceanGateTitan/comments/1g4hehl/what_i_wanted_to_say_at_the_mbi/ I will Paypal $100 to the 1st person that manages to keep a reference to said letter up on a site open to the public for 24 hours- Include link on this page as proof - GOOD LUCK

It's been one year since the Titan submersible tragedy, where five people were killed when the vessel imploded in the ocean. Karl Stanley was friends with Oc...

Idabel's dive # 1830- The longest she has ever been out of the water- 7 months- Since then I passed my 25 yr anniversary of my 1st passenger and Idabel passed her 20 yr - Did a total overhaul- every single thing apart- Tony and Michele were my guinea pigs- 700 feet for an hour- only very minor leaks and we saw a shark. Happy April fools !

Submersibles allow us to witness the wonders of the depths of our planet like nothing else. But after the OceanGate disaster, how safe are they? Cal Flyn goes aboard…

How often do you recconnect with someone that you had an unforgettable experience with 25 years ago? Wil and I met when I had the 1st sub, C-BUG on display at Seaworld. Shortly after he found himself 500 feet deep in the Atlantic ocean doing the last dives in that craft with me before it was shipped to Roatan.

Thanks to the new batteries, redesigned seating and this group not being over-protective of their personal space, Idabel set a PB record last night carrying 4 adults weighing a combined 580 lbs.

Couple from Mexico that went on today's dive, which was the 20 year anniversary of Idabel making her first dive in Broken Bow Reservior. We were down for 4 hours, went to 2000 feet and saw a wonkey eyed jewel squid, a dumbo octopus and 2 sixgill sharks.

On yesterday's dive got into the largest school I can ever remember of these fish that hang upside down in the water. 1600 feet, easily thousands, interestingly they were all the same size, only about half of how big they can get. At the end of the dive we also saw a tiger shark at 400'

Saw this catshark on my last dive at 2000'- Not the kind of chain catshark I am used to seeing 900-1200 feet- Anyone know the species ?

Originally hailing from the US state of Minnesota, this week’s featured photographer Joshua Schellenberg grew up just about as far from the ocean as you can get. His love for scuba diving and underwater photography began later in life, shortly after he moved to Florida in 2016. Soon after relocati...

“If you’re just going on a yacht in some fancy place, that’s one thing,” says Ray Dalio of going bullish on submersibles.

Highlights from my last dive before taking apart the sub to repaint.

Stanley Submarines - Honduras shared a post on Instagram: "Anna and Zbigniew encountered 3 six gills, a Venus flytrap sea anemone, a Nudibranch, two unidentified squids, glass sponges, sea lilies, and a Wonky eyed squid. In my experience exploring for 23 years, I have only seen less than 10 Wonky ey...

Parts of the sub were made at this very facility. They were such an instrumental part of the process, when it was time for Idabel to be trucked from Oklahoma to Florida, it made the journey on the same truck as some of their tires.

Until recently considered a folly available only to billionaires, personal submarines are now ready for the (well-heeled) masses.
