While Scuba diving you are wearing a fabric vest that is known as your boucency compensator or your B.C. This also happens to be the vest that keeps your tank attached to your back. When you wish to float to the surface, you slowly put air (from your tank) into your BC. The air released in the vest is much less dense than the water and thus it travels to the surface pulling you with it.

How much to charge on a scuba diving set?

A scuba diving set can be anywhere from 50 to 100 dollars for a set to do a certification dive, but this is for just rental. I saw a scuba set for 1000 or 2000 dollars, but this is to buy the set. this was just a beginners set, however, and they can go for 5000 dollars for a good set.

Does a Lego boat float?

Are you talking about the premade shells or the ones you build yourself? The premade shells do float, although they leak slightly. The sets might or might not float (depends on the set) but i would bet the pirate ship at the very least is top heavy. As for the ones you build yourself, as long as you make the surface area of the hull reasonably large, it should float fine.
