This watercraft is designed for viewing marine-life underwater while simultaneously allowing families/ friends to remain together, dry, and safe on-board the watercraft.  The ideal client for this product would be a beach resort located in a tropical destinations. The resort would purchase several watercrafts and place them along a dock, then a dock operator would sell resort guests 1 or 2 hour sessions on-board the watercraft.  Guests would board the boat and venture down the stairs to an underwater cabin.  On-board the watercraft there is no steering wheel and it is powered by battery.  The watercraft travels along predetermined paths controlled by GPS.  Li-Dar and simple sensors would continuously scan the surrounding water to detect and avoid other boats/ objects in the water. on the upper deck of the watercraft there is a bathroom as well as a galley with a mini-fridge and storage.
