Alvin swimmer Patrick Neumann holds on tight and talks to the sub’s occupants as they rock and roll in windy conditions in January 2007 at the East Pacific Rise. Ken Feldman (in the water, left) works to hook up the tow line that will haul the sub close to the stern of Atlantis, where the swimmers will attach lift lines to haul Alvin onto the ship.
