A stock aircraft called Aquarius Eel. Built in the KSP 1.7.3 SPH with 52 stock parts.

This is an upgrade to my original Valkyrie Eel package, which may soon be retired. I did not quite feel that the original Eel was very satisfactory in the water, since it tended to roll, especially annoyingly while turning. In truth, Eel only ever makes two turns, once it is in the water.

The screenshot shows Aquarius, ditched in the water after aerially jettisoning Eel. Eel has maneuvered over to find a point to dock for the transfer of fuel. This is the perfect way to refuel watercraft, particularly those that are engaged in a long journey.
