Salvage the lost cargo from up to 600 ft below! This is a bit complicated, so step by step instructions below;
This uses Underwater MOD
Start:
- Start in a location with depth no greater than -600 feet.
- Cargo (lost) will be deployed when you start (the red containers, 40,000 lbs each)
- Sea-anchors will be deployed automatically (Use LandingGear to raise - not now - camera 4).
- AG2 and AG3 to activate main and aux hoists. Throttle to pay out cable - 100% is fine.
Underwater:
- Camera 1
- To move the diver use PITCH (forward/backward/up/down), YAW and ROLL.
- Move too, and collect the main hoist magnet using the divers magnet.
- AG4 to turn on divers magnet.
- Take the main hoist magnet to a container, AG5 activates the main hoists magnet - connect it to a container.
- AG4 off and move the diver away.
- AG2 off and Throttle to zero - the cargo will then be taken to the surface. Camera 2 to observe.
Surface ops.
- Once the cargo has been lifted, use VTOL up / down, to rotate boom to offload cargo.
- TRIM will extend to the boom - be careful not to capsize the vessel when rotating.
- Release the cargo (AG5), rotate boom back to rear and drop the magnet via Throttle.
- Repeat the above for the other containers.
Sail Away
- When all containers ore loaded, bring up the main hoist and diver. Once surfaced, AG2 and AG3 off.
- “LandingGear” to raise anchors (camera 4).
- AG1 for main engines; TRIM = forward/reverse and YAW = left right.
Notes:
- When moving the diver try short taps first to - like hoping forward etc.
- One option is to beach the vessel to offload the cargo. Most times you will be able to reverse back out to sea.
- Basic controls are located in the bridge - cockpit view.
- The buoys on the side provide buoyancy - if they are damaged the vessel may sink.
- For mobile users - you can try this on land (at airport) as the diver is able to move on land as per underwater - its note quite the same but hey.
Enjoy

I've never been more in love with a ship in simpleplanes
Thats a thought... I’ll research...
@Skystar
Thanks everyone!
maaan youre awesome!
Noice. You should make more machines. Maybe a flying machine.
This is the coolest creation on the website IMO
This is so cool, can't play with it since I'm on iOS, but I'm still very impressed with this creation, definitely adding it to favorites so I can access it later when I can, lol.
huh
Very nice idea! Never seen this done before!
Cool! I love the little diver dude

Cool I always wanted to make something like that :)
@SpiritusRaptor Can you link me the mod?
I'm using the designer settings mod, with a back colour I chose and a FOV of 20
@SubXTribe
What designer is that?
