  What sort of scooter is this? Those underwater vehicles for divers to ride,
that I have seen, look too bulky to get into caves or wrecks easily: I thought
that they were for speed in open water.
  What is the NSS? What is this manual actually called? (I am British and
don't know everything about USA diver organizations.)
  How much actual use is made of these 3 sorts of underwater vehicle?:-
  (1) Like a torpedo, the diver rides astride it.
  (2) The diver hangs onto its back end and it tows him.
  (3) Motor and propeller strapped to his back.
