    Stupid actual question: Would a person with a scuba tank and nothing to live for be able to get close to one? I assume there’s something looking for people swimming under the water, because if I can think of it, so can an engineer.

      On the one hand, a carrier is fricking fast unlike its size would suggest, so good luck catching up. On the other hand, the ASW sonars may not pick up something as small as a diver, but they certainly can fry them.

      Maybe in port.
