Harbor Branch Oceanographic Institution (HBOI) has for the past 15
years been developing and operating two of the most active and
productive (Alldredge and Youngbluth, 1965; littler et al., 1966)
undersea research vehicles, the 805 m operating depth JOHNSON-SEALINKs
(JSL) I and II. These four man submersibles were designed with
lock-out capabilities enabling two researchers to exit and re-enter
the craft at depth. It was originally envisioned that manipulative
tasks, and those functions requiring finesse, would be carried out by
these lock-out divers. Engineers at HBOI have, however, developed an
inventory of tools systems (Tietze and Clark, 1986) which enable the
sub's occupants to perform a wide variety of research from within the
safety of its hull, and well beyond the depth limits of safe lock-out diving. Florida Atlantic University.
