Description
The classic "hard hat" diving suit, this outfit
features a heavy protective suit, a helmet that completely encases
the head and provides windows to the front and sides, weighted
boots, and a weight belt. The umbilical lines include an air
hose, a safety line, and a communications wire for surface-to-diver
contact. These lines may be as long as desired, subject to
availability and the normal considerations of pressure and diver
safety. A
compressor
or manually-operated hand pump is also required for this rig.
The umbilical salvage rig is subject to
considerable hazards when the diver works among overhanging rocks or
in submerged wrecks, since the umbilical hoses can be severed in
such conditions.
All physical tasks are increased
by two levels of difficulty for any character wearing an umbilical
salvage rig.
