Looks good. Reminds me of the research sub my dad went down on once. For a dedicated science sub, you could give it a Science Array to represent the range of sensors it carries, rather than rely on the minimal set provided by the Control Room. I'd probably give it a Small Arm, drop the Cargo Bay down to two Small modules, and a full sized Array, but that's just me =P

I thought of that but not counting armor, it is very cramped module wise.
Putting in a science array for long distance water study would push it down to only two people. Not to mention the arm can act as a clamp to hold a remote vehicle for studying the fast moving creatures, not to mention it's communication cord could be quite long.
