A small sub called the "Se Urchin" which was built by International Hardsuits had these
types of fluid logic controls. I can't find the original site, but here's a picture
of someone who uses one.

I have seen it in person i Vancouver some years ago. At that time they had just hired
someone to market the things, but they didn't have much luck, although they had some
nice brochures printed. I suppose it's like any one of about 30 people who have tried
to make a go of small subs for recreatonal purposes. It seems to me most people
interested are somewhat like the readers of this group, who don't appear ready or
willing to put out 200,000 for somethign ready-made.
BTW, this is nice: http://www.calweb.com/~captnemo/sub.htm

AAKKK!!! I can claim only doing the first wimpy site on my server. Since then, Ray
Keefer and Jon have done all of the work. Further, I owe them replies for doing some
HTML the survey, but I've been so swamped with work I've got a guit complex. I agree
though, "hats off to Ray and Jon!"
