This is the ROV I built one day at work. I still have to mount the motors and do all the wiring. I am going to use 75' of cat5 as a tether. One day when I am ready to start getting fancy I will try to use the fiber optic cable that I have and use and abuse my friendship with the only programmer at work.

It's the USS Klakring. I don't have a lot of personal storage space on the ship. The ROV has to share a filing cabinet draw with my XBOX, laptop, and a couple hundred feet of paracord.

I was on the FFG 46. I know exactly where on the ship your talking about.
