Hi,

my name is Ricardo and I'm from Portugal. I have three major hobbies in my Live, Scuba Diving, Sailing and Techy stuff :D

One day after a dive where I came out completely freeze, I thought to my self it would be nice to have a device to explore underwater and at the same time allow me to check my sailboat propeller anodes... I start searching the net and I saw some good DIY projects and then I thought, you can build that as well so why pay 20.000€ for an ROV!??!

That's the goal, build an rov to help me checking my anodes and my propeller and when I am freeze to go dive without have my feet wet :D and since imagination is the mother of all inventions I would like to build something that could go 300 meters deep! I would live to see whats down there at that depth.

I'll keep you posted on my progress and thank you for allowing me in and learn from you!
