Recently we had a trip to Monterey Bay Aquarium. In the souvenir shop I
found an interesting book "Build Your Own Lego Submersible" by Harry Bohm

Despite its name, the only Lego element used in this project is the RCX
brick. The book talks exclusively about hardware construction -- mainly how
to seal off everything -- and leave the controlling software to the readers
as an exercise...

Strangely, the book does not seem to include any information about its
authoers or publishers. From Google I managed to find the web page of one of
its authors
<http://www.ensc.sfu.ca/research/url/people/harry.html>
and also its sister book "Build Your Own Undersea Robot"
<http://www.ensc.sfu.ca/research/url/oc_projects/>.

Cheers,
