Peter Madsen, alias Peter Uboat, is on saturday going to launch
his 3rd home built submarine, UC3 Nautilus, which is the largest
ever privately built submarine, 60 feet long. Peter plans to sail the
submarine around the world.

OK, but, if I could afford to built something that could travel around the world, I'd like to SEE the world.....I mean, why not just fly around blindfolded?

But still, I mean, if you were going under the polar ice caps or exploring the depths ok, but to travel around the globe UNDER the water?

I can see it now when he gets home and his wife asks:

Wow, Peter, it must have been great going by the hawaiian islands, the bet they were beautiful!

Peter: I dunno, all I saw was coral...... lol
 
Naw...the coast guard will think he's a russian military submarine moving in to unleash a nuclear warhead on the coast of the United States and the coast guard will act first and blow him out of the water.

Hey, you never know. Maybe he built a nuclear warhead too and has terrorist plans. He just didn't reveal the nuclear warhead.
 
Peter Madsen.........one sub better than the Canadian navy.
 
Does he at least have internet access on that boat? Where he can download porn while 25 miles underwater.

A sub that isn't seaworthy is not a sub, it's an anchor.

This is Madsen's third sub. That would make him 2 better than the Canadian navy.

But are all of them at sea?

And I can practically guarantee, that he will have a better looking crew.:D
Some of the girls from the fish plant are eager to see where their cans go.

If I lived in Denmark I'd try to get the hell out of there too.
