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. |

V true
Has to be MRV 6 although it is only the LX version as opposed to MRV5 which is the GTI version but as with all sports cars becomes a little unrealiable  |

Lucky Jim are you another of these MRV expert's
You won't even remember when MRV 5 was a GTI version!
The techology in all the vehicles mentioned are slighgtly different,but it is like any other piece of equipment if you maintain it and look after it you will have increased reliability.  |
