There was a purpose built submarine The CSS Hunley, which was the first submarine to sink an enemy vessel in wartime. It had problems and sank, killing three different crews by the time it was lost.

there aren’t enough Xanax in ALL of NYC to get this neurotic NYer into one of those!!!!!

there was one almost used to sink an English ship in the Revolutionary war.
fit one person and was decided it would never make it across the river as it was man powered and he’d be exhausted before reaching :)

They were volunteers, and definitely courageous. Imagine, if you will, the idea of being the ones to break the Union blockade of the harbor, and you will understand.
