Abstract:
A device for use in water surface and subsurface travel, the device comprising:a towbar having first and second end portions; a first control member rotatably coupled to the towbar adjacent to the first end portion, wherein the first control member has a first control surface and a second control surface opposite the first control surface; a second control member rotatably coupled to the towbar adjacent to the second end portion and spaced from the first control member, wherein the second control member has a third control surface and a fourth control surface opposite the third control surface; first and second grips spaced apart and fixed to the towbar between the first and second control members so that rotation of the first and second grips about a longitudinal axis of the towbar causes the first and second control members to rotate about the longitudinal axis of the towbar; a towline connector fixed to the towbar between the first and second grips; a chassis disposed between the control members that includes a fairing portion adapted to deflect water; and an air supply reservoir mounted to the chassis.
