TRITON 3300/6

Spacious and luxurious deep-sea diving for six

Triton 3300/6 submersible

The TRITON 3300/6 is a leisure-focused derivation of the venerable TRITON 3300/3 MKII design.

Building upon the industry’s most successful series-production platform, the TRITON 3300/6 is the first submersible to feature the world’s largest spherical acrylic pressure hull. Six passengers will experience a level of space and comfort never before found in a submersible capable of diving to any depth, let alone 1,000 meters / 3,300 feet.

For the ultimate in comfort, the TRITON 3300/6 can be configured to accommodate four passengers.

The TRITON 3300/6’s streamlined design brings an elegant aesthetic to a configuration that has been tightly optimised for deployment from a superyacht. Uniquely for a 1,000 meter-rated submersible, it can be deployed using standard tender lifting arrangements – greatly reducing the handling head-height typically required from such a capable submersible.

Easy Boarding

The TRITON 3300/6 features a generously sized hatch which has been angled rearwards to maximise ease of boarding. The adjacent high-grip tread area has been positioned in relation to the interior steps so as to achieve a comfortable, natural movement. Triton’s signature ‘pontoon’ design ensures that throughout the boarding process, the submersible remains flat and level on the water.

Easy Ingress

Climbing into the TRITON 3300/6 is as simple as descending a set of steps. The Pilot’s seat, at the rear of the cabin and immediately below the hatch, converts into access stairs, offering a comfortable, raked descent down to your seat.

Ergonomic Seating

Once inside, passengers will enjoy plush seating replete with fine leathers and hand-finished upholstery. The position and layout of the chairs ensures everyone enjoys a nearly 360° view and, importantly, that they all share the same view as one another and the Pilot-Guide.

Pro-Performance. modest Integration.

From the inception of the TRITON 3300/6, we knew it needed to be be based on our most capable platform – the same that underpins Triton’s flagship professional submersible.

We also knew how much our leisure customers value the ability to integrate our submersibles seamlessly into the traditional superyacht environment.

Despite its incredible capabilities, the TRITON 3300/6 may be stored, launched and recovered from within a standard tender garage. It has a footprint similar to that of the TRITON 3300/3, but with a lower overall height and, for its capability, a modest weight. By choosing to mount all external equipment lower down, the sub takes full advantage of the space between the dual-gantry tender lift arrangements typical to superyachts.

The illustration below shows the dramatic reduction in handling height requirements for the TRITON 3300/6 vs the submersible platform on which it is based.
