... but far too much drag.

Russ, have a look at this project, you might find it useful.

Good point jack, but now I have a better idea.
Go to a $2 shop and buy somthing like this:

I used to be able to buy cheap versions of these for about $2. If you cut the end off the pump it would give you a good piston and a tube that it fits perfectly in. Best of all it should have fairly low drag.
I wonder how much deeper the ocean would be without sponges.
Right now I'm having amnesia and deja vu at the same time. I think I've forgotten this before.
