After checking the Bluerobotics site, it looks like it would cost at least $100 to do my float. Too much unless it would be full depth capable (about 1500 feet in my case with safety factor) My max operating depth will be 1000'.

Good to know, I kinda had a feeling that would happen... maybe I'll scrap that idea before I waste to much effort on it. I might just have to give that Blue robotics stuff a shot.
