ABSTRACT:
A slightly negatively buoyant personnel-accommodating chamber is suspended from a pair of buoyant-link flexible drive loops engaging the under surface of an ice cover over the body of water in which the chamber is submerged. Propulsion of the chamber can be effectuated through the medium of a power driven sprocket wheel arrangement that propels the chamber along the buoyant drive loops which in turn are caused to "roll" along the under surface of the ice.
