Hank, tell us more about the paddle wheeler - diver access I assume is difficult due to depth, or something else?

The marker line is to a surface buoy I presume? Isn't that useful as a descent reference?

Only one diver reached it and set a record at the time.  The diver is a friend and he told me he tied a marker line to the bow.  I want to get rid of that line, so that on future dives to the wreck I don'd risk descending onto that line.  Also as you mention one sub in a group should have this rope cutting ability.

The only thing with my sub is that it's so large that I would more than likely get entangled in a place that would be unreachable with any arm I had anyway.   Actually that would be true with most any sub, you're not going to be able to reach all areas of the sub.  But for rescuing another sub I can see a real benefit  !

The throat of the cutter is only about 5\8 so I would have to chew on a larger line.  I made it so a rope can't get in behind the cutter and I kept it small so it doesn't interfere with the gold bars.  This arm is very powerful.
