Triton submarines are able to dive to depths up to 11,000 metres, breaking records and allowing the team to explorer the world's most unexplored depths.

It also further establishes the personal submarine’s position – not just as a toy for the superrich – but a viable tool that can advance human understanding and excitement for the ocean, bringing important discoveries back to everyone."

This will be accomplished in the years ahead via testing of new materials, in-house development of enhanced battery technologies and new design partners.
Triton has recently announced a number of exciting partnerships, most notably with the Monaco-based yacht designer Espen Øino, who has designed a series of radical new submarines for the superyacht market. They have also created a series of concept superyacht designs with submarine launch and recovery capabilities in collaboration with world-famous support yacht builder, ShadowCat.
