<p>A submarine plough (101) for burying a cable in a trench in the seabed is disclosed. The plough (101) includes a plough share (102) having a cutting edge for cutting a bottom of the trench in the seabed, and a plough body (107) connected to the plough share (102) and having attachment means for enabling the plough to be towed by a ship. A pair of skids at least partially supports the plough, and a jetting leg (120) is located forwardly of the plough share (102) in use for producing plurality of jets of pressurised water to at least partially break up and fluidise the seabed forwardly of the plough share (102). The jetting leg (120) is displaceable from a working position to a stowed position out of the way of the cutting edge (103).</p> |
