Another intriguing cover by Richard Powers.
Rather than creating an image with a single, central image, most of the cover is given over to blank space, upon which the title and author’s name are superimposed. Only at the “bottom” of the cover (this is a nautically inspired title, after all!) appears a painting of various forms of sea-life, including a kind of mermaid, and a large-headed jellyfish.
And, floating above, a stylized, transparent submarine.

Not a yellow, but a green submarine.

The rear covers bears a photograph of Avram Davidson, by Emsh (Edward Emshwiller).
