Besides, it is a little rough on a diver controlling the sub from the outside at `500 fsw. J

Alan, I was more concerned with the hydrodynamic drag. I forgot about the stopping issue.
 
I didn't realize before today that the some or all of the SEAmagines have external controls just behind the acrylic pressure hull for a SCUBA diver pilot.  I can see it having some uses for rescue. But I'm not sure how useful it is over all. I'd much rather pilot a sub inside, nice and dry. Not to mention the sea monsters. ;}  
 
I do have plans forming to be able to operate my sub unmanned as a ROV to greater depths then I would want to go manned.
