Top Hat has been bobbing in front of the robotic arm for a while now. What's this all about? Inspecting before attempting to place it over the cut?

MrB, you should start another thread with some of their solutions... should be good reading.

Its certainly been a challenge trying to figure things out to explain to the kids whats going on, what they're looking at etc. Been hard to explain to them the differences of engineering on land vs. 5000 ft. below sea.

I still think it is a matter of trying to stuff 10 lbs. of shite into a 5 lb. sack.

Wait, what, nu has some insight?

I missed the first try, but I was thinking the 3 ROV's in action would each hold a 3rd or a corner of the top hat to keep it stable as it lowers onto the turbulence.

Is that the case or do they just force it down from above?
