No problem on initially missing the post, Rflong. Your threads are always so busy, LOL.
I found the following excerpt from SG Graham about not being sure if the ability to build worlds with deep enough water for a dive lot will be in CAW or not. I'm not giving up hope yet that the potential for a user created world with a deep ocean is totally out of the picture. From what I read it looks like building a dive lot will be similar to building a tomb. When they described a cave that leads to another lot, it sounds like the same sort of system for connecting dive wells. That's not something I know how to do but do know others have mastered the technique. :D

Scuba Diving will only be possible in Isla Paradiso due to the depth of the ocean. The oceans in the existing worlds are too shallow for the Sims to go scuba diving in; the ocean is actually much deeper in Isla Paradiso.
Players who want to edit or rebuild the existing dive lots from scratch will be able to within Isla Paradiso by using a lot unlocking cheat, but they can’t be moved or placed elsewhere.
The only thing I’m not 100% clear on is if you could use the Isla Paradiso world as a template to achieve the proper ocean depth in CAW and build a custom world from scratch that starts with that correct depth. I included Sarah as she may be able to shed some light on that.
You can only edit the ones that already exist in the world, not add new ones. I’m just not familiar enough with CAW functionality or how the scuba lots were built to confirm if the very advanced creators will have any recourse to alter ocean depth or modify the placement of dive areas if the ocean is at the correct depth.
@SimGuruSarah may know better, or it may end up requiring some experimentation by the community, but I don’t expect it to be something the average player ever does. For the average player, editing a dive lot means entering the lot locking cheat and altering the dive lots that already exist in Isla Paradiso through Edit Town mode."
