Submarine gets stuck on seabed in South Sound shallows
Downunder Submarines Ltd.’s yellow submarine was temporarily stuck on the seabed in South Sound on 11 Feb.
The sub grounded on an area of sandy bottom where there were no hard corals, so there was reportedly no damage to either the submarine or the marine environment.
Naomi Law, who lives in a condominium that looks out on the stretch of coast where the grounding occurred, she said it took at least two hours before the submarine crew was able to free the submarine from the shallows. For a more complete summary of the story, please see the below link:
