Dale,
The Sea Life Discovery is a semi submersible here is Sitka. I've diving been diving for Ken and Debbie for about 10 years now. It's called a semi-sub becuase we have ballast tanks we flood in order to draw the boat deeper in the water. I never actually submerges. (unless there's a big swell - and those are FUN!!)
The website can explain things better than I

We cater mostly to cruise ships in the summer months: A two hour tour through the ell grass flats, then a cruise through the kelp forest and then a 20minute dive show with a camera.
Here's the kelp forest:
Here's the inside of the passenger area, only 1/2 capacity on our 2nd trip yesterday. The girl standing on the bench is Dawn, the other diver. She was narrating the tours yesterday, so I did a couple of solo dives and she took the pictures on my camera.
Let me know if you ever heading this way and I'll try to get you on board, or we can always cruise out to our dive station and poke around, I have an extra Pheonix you can borrow. There are two decent wrecks right under our station. Both are small fishing vessels.
Also, if anyone's looking for seasonal dive work, keep these folks in mind next year. All the contact info is on the site.
