An unsinkable boat shows off its capabilities in New Jersey

The video introduces a 26-foot steel power cruiser designed to be unsinkable. It demonstrates the boat's resilience by locking the watertight door and filling it with water, yet it remains afloat due to its airtight cabin and steel air tanks. The engine is housed in a watertight compartment with snorkel-type ventilators for air. Initially intended for military use, the cruiser is expected to be available for the general public as a pleasure craft.
