After building and priming the sub, I attacked a block of high-density foam with a DIY foam cutter to settle the sub in the water.

Used the standard foil, paper and mod-podge technique for creating the sea surface and wake

Thanks for the comments Robert, andrew, Jan, Simon. There's no greater compliment than when a sea-scape momentarily gives the illusion of reality. I think I just build ships these days as an excuse to model some more water😉
