| "Seasoar", a towed vehicle during deployment. The inset shows the vehicle hanging from the A-frame of the research vessel. In the main figure the vehicle is seen to enter the water. The wings are rotated upward to make it dive. Tail fins give dynamic stability. The instrumentation (a CTD) is housed in the main body. © 2000 Chelsea Instruments, reproduced by permission | A towed vehicle is launched from the Australian research vessel Franklin. © 2000 Matthias Tomczak |
