I work for Oceaneering , and I know how critical it is to have spare parts available , I wanted to know if someone wanted to buy a sub what companies out there build a good sub AND have tech suport and parts available . A work class sub with manipulators is what I was interested in , something that was dependable . Curious as to what some of you more experience guys might have to say . Thanks – Garve 😕

Seaeye …sorry Saab rov’s
Guess the swedes are going to put crash bars and air bags on the Seaeye stuff (Saab has just bought the company).
Should be interesting to watch their direction now with a big Military contractor running the show.

If you see a ROV there start with Q, just run and keep running.

Scorpio is nice and not very old 🙄
