Description
The Seamoth is the first true vehicle most survivors will craft. It is a compact, single-pilot submersible that trades cargo capacity for speed and maneuverability. Its modular upgrade system lets you tailor it for deeper dives, perimeter defense, and even sonar scanning, making it the workhorse of the mid-game. Pair it with a Moonpool for automated charging and repairs to keep exploring without returning to base.
How to Craft
Craft the Seamoth at a Vehicle Bay after unlocking the blueprint by scanning Seamoth fragments scattered across the Grassy Plateaus. Gather the following materials and approach the Vehicle Bay to assemble it.

Craftable early gameWhat it Does
The Seamoth provides fast underwater transport, a small cargo compartment, and a modular upgrade bay. It is the ideal vehicle for scouting new biomes, relocating resources, and outrunning predators in the shallows and mid-depths.
Fast Transport
Outruns most predators and covers long distances quickly, making it the go-to vehicle for biome scouting and waypoint travel.
Small Cargo
A compact storage module slot lets you ferry harvested resources and gear between biomes and your base.
Modular Upgrades
Four upgrade slots accept depth modules, perimeter defense, sonar, and storage mods for flexible loadouts.
Upgrades
The Seamoth supports two primary upgrade paths, each crafted at a Modification Station. Choose based on whether you prioritize deeper exploration or survivability in hostile territory.

How do I unlock the Seamoth?
Scan Seamoth fragments found in the Grassy Plateaus and build the Vehicle Bay to craft it. You'll typically need three fragment scans to unlock the blueprint, after which you can assemble it at any deployed Vehicle Bay.
What is the Seamoth's default depth limit?
The base Seamoth can dive to 200m before taking hull damage; depth modules raise this limit. Install a MK1 Depth Module to reach 300m, MK2 for 500m, and MK3 for 900m to keep pace with deeper exploration.
Can the Seamoth carry cargo?
Yes, the Seamoth has a small storage module slot and supports a perimeter defense system. The storage upgrade gives you a dedicated locker, while the perimeter defense module lets you zap predators that get too close.
