a swimming pool that moves below deck when submerged

Austrian-based yacht design studio Motion Code: Blue developed it as a design study of a six deck, 115 metre long private white yacht, called Migaloo and named after an albino whale.
The studio came up with an extraordinary design concept to satisfy the ever raising demands from super-rich yacht owners who want to stand out from the crowd.

When Migaloo is submerged, all furniture is put away in large storage areas underneath the granite decking while the pool's bottom raises up to the main deck level.
The foredeck is fully dedicated to the owners' privacy, hosting a full-beam private lounge. More lounge areas, a private bar and access to the two-level-owners' suite are directly underneath the foredeck.

I saw that. Just a concept. Flight of fancy. Save the outrage for reality based things.

where does one find a submarine crew for private hire?
It definitely doesn't seem like something an amateur would want to pilot underwater.

scraps of food. Now ain't this some kind of a swell right-wing-soused society we now have that was crafted by those with a solemn moral duty to provide for the general welfare?
