Graham,

Somewhere in all these threads, I got your design confused with the
recently-posted pictures of Brent's ambient sub project.  That error,
combined with your questions about basic submarine design math, and your
questions about enabling a Minn Kota to work at 1000 feet, led me to think
you might be doing something unsafe.
