Abstract
A steerable plow configured for towing in a direction along a seabed comprises a body and a soil cutting member slidingly connected to the body. The soil cutting member defines a cutting vane for cutting a trench in the seabed. The body includes two skids and a cross member spanning the two skids. The skids are spaced apart from each other and from the soil cutting member to stabilize the plow. A motive element is included to move the soil cutting member relative to the body, and a steering control receives commands from a remote location to control the motive element. At least one towing member is included to attach the plow to a tow cable.
