Although I must admit, I've been doing a lot more Google-ing since belonging to this forum. It seems to have re-ignited my interest for knowledge.

So are you going to give us the answer soon or what?

It's a Pneumatic Benthic Sampler. Also known as a 'LUBS' (Large, Undisturbed Bottom Sampler).

Can you believe there's a North American Benthological Society?
