Re:Building DPV
Unless you have a very thorough background in engineering and manufacturing I would not recommend tackeling this project. There are some plans that you can buy for like $25 online, but most of those designs perform very poorly, and are only depth rated to 30ft. You can find used Tekna's for sale for about $800, which are rated to about 150ft and will run close to an hour with new batteries. That's definitely a lot cheaper than any homemade design with the same specs.
If you do have the abovementioned background, you could tackle the development of a deep tow-behind scooter a la Gavin or SS, but you'll be looking at about $2800 in parts and manufacturing.
