Question: What do you call those underwater mini-engine one-man thingies?

[RangerWickett]

I'm sure you've seen what I'm talking about. In The Rock, the marines had a couple of these, and they've probably been in lots of other movies. It looks kinda like a jet ski, only it's just for underwater. You can use it to help you move fast underwater while diving, and it can carry weapons and stuff. What's it called?

I'd just call it a submersable.

Or a UDT (Underwater Drivey Thing).

 

[pontus]

You might be thinking of a DPV (Diver Propulsion Vehicle).

Or possibly the Apparatus of Kwalish.

They're called underwater scooters.

Or possibly the Apparatus of Kwalish.

Blast, you beat me to it!

 

[Robbert Raets]

Heh, I thought you were asking about Diving Bells.
