The Ictineu II was the first successful combustion powered submarine launched 2 October 1864. It had 14 meters length, 2 meters beam and 3 meters depth with 46 tonnes of displacement and 29 m³ capacity. It was built with olive tree wood with oak reinforcements and a 2 millimeter thick copper layer. Due to financial problems, the Ictineu II was sold as scrap in 1868. This is a replica of the Ictineu II.
