    A military or naval diver sits on the edge of a small rigid inflatable boat (RIB), wearing a tactical vest and handling diving/equipment gear. In the background, a U.S. Navy Littoral Combat Ship (LCS) is visible on open blue ocean waters. The scene suggests a maritime military operation or dive exercise in progress.
    A rigid-hull inflatable boat (RHIB) is underway on open ocean with four crew members visible at the helm station. The vessel appears to be a law enforcement or Coast Guard patrol craft equipped with navigation and communication equipment. The boat is moving at speed, creating a visible wake in moderately choppy blue water under a partly cloudy sky.
