Check out the deck gear...
*Mini-sub,
*hyperbaric chamber,
*diver lockout chamber

Former Fleet Diving Support Ship includes manned submersible diver lockout
(SDL) used for seabed surveillance, search, location & recovery. Included
with the vessel is 2 million dollars (book value) worth of spares.

Nah, they were originally thinking about sinking the carrier in the
Med as a dive attraction - make the Scylla look a bit silly

The talk was they were going to drop her in 90M that way the top would
be at about 6M

They're not _still_ trying to find a buyer for her are they? No hang on,
just checked the link, they've actually got her marked as SOLD.

Wow, she's been on the market for years too, okay, own up. Who bought her?
