RE: [PSUBS-MAILIST] Submarine deployed ROV

[irox <irox@ix.netcom.com>]

Hi,

I'm also planning/hoping to having an ROV I can deploy and recover
from my sub.  The idea is to use an ROV instead of humans and diver
lockout.

There are a few interesting problems, such as spooling out and back
in the cable.  Once I get around to working on ROV I'll be happy to
share my solutions.

Cheers,
  Ian.
