The Catalog Of Nautilus Designs


The Nautilus is the fictional submarine featured in Jules Verne's novels 'Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea' and 'The Mysterious Island.' Verne named the Nautilus after Robert Fulton's real-life submarine Nautilus.

Here's a catalog of Nautilus designs, organized in roughly but not strict chronological order to provide something of an historical perspective.

What about the Capt. Nemo's Nautilus from League Of Extraordinary Gentleman? a glaring omission!

Just for your information, the linked web site (mine) has moved. The new address is http://www.vernianera.com/Nautilus/

Regarding the LoXG Nautilus, many people have offered a similar opinion and I'm considering adding it, although it is based on the the LoXG graphic novle and not on 20,000 Leagues under the Sea.
