| has gloss | eng: The Sub Marine Explorer is a submarine built between 1863 and 1866 by Julius H. Kroehl and Ariel Patterson in Brooklyn, New York for the Pacific Pearl Company. It was hand powered and had an interconnected system of a high-pressure air chamber or compartment, a pressurized working chamber for the crew, and water ballast tanks. Problems with decompression sickness led to the abandonment of the Sub Marine Explorer in Panama in 1869 despite publicized plans to shift the craft to the pearl beds of Baja California. |

| has gloss | deu: Die Sub Marine Explorer war ein 1865 von dem Deutsch-Amerikaner Julius Kröhl gebautes U-Boot. Da es das erste Boot war, das aus eigener Kraft wieder auftauchte, gilt es als das erste funktionsfähige U-Boot der Welt. Das erst 2001 identifizierte Wrack liegt heute am Strand einer Insel vor Panama. Aufgrund der starken Korrosion ist eine Bergung oder Restaurierung nicht mehr möglich. |
