Calypso he also has another ship called Alcytone!
The Calypso. The craft is still extant, tied up somewhere. She was converted from a small French Minesweeper- thus an ocean-going craft. an odd Cousteau feature was a pulpit bow- an observation station- dry from which crewmen and/or cameramen could photograph sea life and observe same while the ship was underway- with a slight speed penalty from drag, one would imagine. This device was probably patented and was shown to advantage in the film ( The silent world) original French title more accurately translated-The World Of Silence- which has a sort of religious, monkish tone.No, I do not mean Monk seals, which are anything but silent-chanting!
She was struck by a barge in Singapore Harbour in 1996 and sank.
Cousteau named his ship Calypso after a sea nymph in Greek mythology. The name was suggested by his friend and business partner, Thomas Loel Guinness. Cousteau believed the name represented the adventurous and free-spirited nature of his marine exploration work.
Jacques Cousteau, a renowned oceanographer and marine conservationist, visited Friday Harbor on his research vessel named Calypso. Cousteau was a pioneer in marine exploration and conservation efforts, known for popularizing scuba diving and raising awareness about the importance of ocean health.

Calypso and Odysseus become lovers. Calypso offers Odysseus immortality and eternal youth if he would stay with her. Calypso does not aid Odysseus' escape until told to do so, so he seemed trapped on her island without a ship.
