Security agency W.A.S.P. (World Aquanaut Security Patrol) has its headquarters at the top secret base of Marineville in the year 2065. Troy Tempest is the fearless Captain of the super-submarine Stingray. Stingray is the premier combat vessel of the World Aquanaut Security Patrol and the namesake of the television series. Stingray is a small nuclear powered submarine. Streamlined like a fish, it is capable of traveling at up to 600 knots submerged and 400 knots on the surface. Stingray's honeycomb laminated substructure is strong enough to withstand the pressures of the deepest areas of the ocean. The craft's nuclear power plant, high speed, and deep diving capabilities enable global range. It can truly operate anywhere in the ocean. Stingray is normally crewed by two crewmen - Captain Troy Tempest and Hydrophone Operator George Phones Sheridan. Often they are joined on missions by Marina, an amphibious woman from the undersea city of Pacifica who serves as a guide and an expert on undersea life. Overseen by Commander Shore, WA.S.P. agents do battle against evil. Shore's domain is a vast and threatening undersea world and the enemy, the Aquaphibians, Terror Fish and the pervasive and more terrifying power of the Titan, the evil undersea lord. Tempest's goal is to protect Earth from imminent destruction
