Old Navy Underwater Laser Testing Site is a boat accessible fresh water dive site, located in NH. The maximum depth is 21-25ft/6-8m.
From http://www.divewinnipesaukee.com/divesites.html Just south of "Empty Pockets" is the location of the Navy’s old underwater laser testing site that dates back to the 1950’s. SCRIPTS conducted testing to study laser transmission through water. A railcar that ran on a track, like a coal-mining railcar, was used to measure how fast the laser beams were traveling through water. The track is in about 25 feet of water with staging in deeper water.
