<DIV><FONT size=3>GPS is great as a starting point before you submerge and
for telling you where you are once you surface. Too bad radio signals
don't propagate so well under water. In the past we've discussed
mounting a GPS antenna on a Diver Below buoy with a cable running to the
sub. I don't recall what was said regarding theoretical depth
limitations for such a setup as well as the hydrodynamics of towing
it.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT size=3>It would be really interesting to see how well your INS
position matches up with your GPS when you resurface. I like the idea
of knowing just where you are with reasonable precision when submerged,
being able to return to a precise location on another day, being able to
search or survey methodically, navigating from A to B to C,
etc.</FONT></DIV>
