Method for providing diving services with an onboard water jetting system and real time diver tracking using a jet powered multihull networked vessel

A method for operating a diving support vessel, comprising:

• providing, by one or more power systems of the diving support vessel, power to a plurality of jet drives, wherein the providing power to the plurality of jet drives provides jet propulsion for the diving support vessel;
• providing, by the one or more power systems of the diving support vessel, power to a hydraulic power unit, wherein the hydraulic power unit is configured to provide power to one or more onboard hydraulic dive tools;
• and
• monitoring, by an onboard dive computer system of the diving support vessel, a dive operation, wherein the monitoring includes receiving signals from one or more dive sensors that indicate a position of a diver relative to the diving support vessel during the dive operation.

A diving support system, comprising:

• a plurality of jet drives configured to receive power from one or more power systems, wherein the plurality of jet drives are configured to provide jet propulsion for the diving support system;
• a hydraulic power unit coupled to the one or more power systems, wherein the hydraulic power unit is configured to provide power to one or more onboard hydraulic dive tools;
• an onboard dive computer system configured to monitor dive operations, wherein to monitor dive operations, the onboard dive computer system is further configured to receive signals from one or more dive sensors that indicate a position of a diver relative to the diving support system;
• and
• a dive control system comprised on a deck of the diving support system, wherein the dive control system comprises a decompression chamber and a nitrox/air diving system.
