 Phil,That
 really clears it up alot. I know business has been good for
 you based on how busy you have been. That is awesome. I know
 all of us business owners strive to remain relevant and it
 seems you have done well. I face the struggle every day in a
 shrinking market place due to the big box stores. We have
 seemed to carve out our niche and have really started to
 grow alot, but it is a deffenet fight tooth and nail. I buy
 alot of inventory from a company in Calgary and they have
 been wanting me to visit there factory for years. Iam going
 to figure out how I can make a Canada trip and visit you and
 write it off as a business expense
  :)Thank
 you,Scott

 Hi, Scott,
 The major reason that
 quite a few operators prefer subs over ROV’s is the 
 absence of a surface  tether. This allows you to go
 places that you 
 shouldn’t and wouldn’t go with a machine because the
 risk of entanglement – 
 inside platform legs, pile jackets, etc., There are a number
 of other reasons 
 that have to do with the operators senses being right on the
 site rather than a 
 half a mile away. Difficult to explain is the ‘whole
 grasp’ scenario that ROV 
 operators who try manned subs almost always mention. Simply
 put, in a sub with a 
 wide view port or a 360 degree dome,  you have a strong
 sense of where 
 everything is – how long ago you passed that pipeline,
 what direction it’s in to 
 go back to, the lay of the bottom,  the trending of the
 currents, where to 
 find lees to hide in, how to avoid ‘box canyon’ current
 pins, the ability to hit 
 ‘auto altitude’ and fly a fixed height above a pipeline
 or cable regardless of 
 the bottom (and therefore the cable’s) undulations. When
 it comes to doing 
 complex work using manips, there’s no contest man versus
 machines. Machines do 
 get the work done if they are set up properly, but much
 slower and with many 
 tries, compared to the pilot whose hand on the joystick is
 five feet away from 
 the work .
 You often hear ROV types
 say ‘well, it’s just the same as being there”. . 
 .  Yeah, right! just like telephone sex is the same as
 the real 
 thing!
 I’ll get off my
 soapbox now.
 Phil

 I have always heard that
 ROV's are cheaper to operate, less risky, and 
 cheaper to buy. I was curious what is the advantages of
 submarines in the 
 commercial world such as the oil industry? It seems like
 Phil Nuyten has been 
 able to be sucsessful with submarines. Just a curiousity of
 mine.
 Thanks,
 Scott Waters
