| Most of the loop will be 50 meters deep during preparation for deployment. The bottom parts of the upcurves may be 500 meters deep, and putting the floats directly on them would provide more damping than anchor cables. The turnarounds will support huge cables to to the sea floor, which will also need buoyant support. | Most of the loop will be 50 meters deep during preparation for deployment.
