The ventilation ducts in a possible embodiment may comprise a first air supply duct from the outside to the inside, and a second air extraction duct from the inside of the cabin to the outside, each duct being provided with a corresponding fan creators of an air circulation.

In addition, when the control cabin is submerged, it has a tubular conduit for emergency exit so that it allows to leave the control cabin without having to be emerged.

The power supply of all the equipment is carried out by means of photovoltaic solar panels placed on wings attached to the upper part of the ventilation duct and emergency exit responsible for the generation of electrical energy that is stored in batteries preferably placed in the base of the control cabin. These batteries can also be recharged through an electrical connection to a distribution network.

On the other hand, the cabin or hull of the boat has enough weight or ballast to depend on the buoyancy pontoons so as not to sink, allowing the mechanical arms to operate to submerge or emerge the control cabin.

The control cabin among other elements will be provided with the control instruments like any other vessel and where also the immersion or emersion control of the control cabin can be carried out, as well as the control of the load and use of the
