Newness and distinctiveness in this design reside in the shape and configuration evident in the representations of this watertight vessel (Item 2) suitable for geophysical and hydrographical survey of small waterways either towed by a tethering harness or propelled by a radio or autonomously controlled propulsion unit (Item 1) attached to the rear which also forms an optional part of the design. The core vessel (Item 2) contains a watertight electronics enclosure a wheel at the front which forms a part of the streamlined design and an open area at the rear in which sensors are placed. A slide out handle on the rear facilitates rolling of the vessel in and out of the water. On the front a tethering harness may be attached for pulling the vessel from waterway banks or with a vessel of opportunity. The vessel has the capability of attachment and trawling of a streamer from the vessel rear.
