摘要 A submersible vessel (10) having wing (14) and keel (16) assemblies that are extendable for wind-powered surface operation and retractable to reduce drag for submerged operation or to place the vessel in a more compact configuration. The vessel may have first (52a) and second (52b) pressure hulls flanking the wing and keel assemblies. A deployment mechanism (60) including an actuator (62) and linkage pivots the wing and keel assemblies simultaneously between the deployed configuration in which the wing and keel assemblies extend outwardly above and below the hull assembly for wind-powered surfaced operation of the vessel and a retracted configuration in which the wing and the keel assemblies are angled back towards the hull assembly to reduce drag for submerged operation.
