The submarine was invented in 1624 by Cornelius van Drebbel. However, Leonardo da vinci drew out the basic concept of a submarine over one hundred years before. Da Vinci kept his plans secret because he didn't want to make war any more terrifying than it already was.
Drebbel, a Dutch inventor and engineer employed by the British navy built a leather- covered rowboat from which oars protruded through watertight seals. Drubbel's ship could stay underwater for a few hours, but it only went about fifteen feet under the surface.
In 1578 William Borne began drawing plans for a submarine, but it was never built. His submarine worked by using extra tanks which could be filled so the submarine would submerge. The tanks would be emptied for the submarine to surface.
