Here are some scans of the Golmar Explorer: Howard Hughes's CIA funded ship for picking up Soviet submarines from the ocean floor. Someone may want to draw it?

Another idea is a fictional Submarine Salvage Ship,based on those plans,capable of lifting a sanked submarine by accident (as on Kursk accident).
