I have been lurking on the internet for a couple of years thinking about building an ROV. This is the winter I am going to do it.
We boat in the summer in the San Juan Islands and I want to explore the anchorages and around the State Park docks. I gave been forming a design in my mind and have even begun collecting parts. FYI Amazon has 800 gpm Attwood pumps right now for $12.87 with Amazon Prime free shipping!
Right now my challenges are picking a camera and monitor. I really want to find an affordable monitor that can be viewed in sun light and am considering the fishing camera systems.

Re: Hi from WA
I am in the Bremerton area and have built a pretty good ROV which I hope to touch the bottom of Puget Sound with eventually. I live within 15 miles of the spot. Biggest issue will be current, keeping the boat in place (too deep to anchor) and the fact the area is in the shipping lane!
