This one is really aimed at you guys doing hull cleaning and other smaller jobs. Not the commercial big boys.
Do you think a small ROV would be a useful tool to have?
Inspections without getting in the water?
Taking a quick peak at a potential customer's boat, dock, etc, for an estimate without even needing to suit up?
Maybe even sending it in at the start of a job to help decide which tools to bring?
For recovering a lost item? Make the ROV do all the work, and then you splash after you find it?
When I say small, I'm talking less than a square foot, under 20lbs. including the controller, tether, power supply, and only a few hundred $.
