Abstract

An underwater buoyancy apparatus for compensating for wave induced vertical and/or horizontal motion, particularly in sonar devices deployed from nautical platform. The underwater buoyancy apparatus is slidably connected along a tether between a nautical platform and an underwater sonar device. The underwater buoyancy apparatus contains a volume of air and/or water which can be changed to thereby alter the underwater buoyancy apparatus's depth in a body of water, in response to vertical and/or horizontal motion the nautical platform.
