A submersible water toy comprises a buoyant streamlined body and a pair of wings attached thereto. While the body encourages the vehicle to rise in water, the wings, being formed from thin flat members resist vertical movement while providing little resistance to forward motion. The centerline of the wings is positioned behind the center of gravity of the bode so that the vehicle will rise in a forward direction while the wings resist vertical movement. Upon release, the submerged water toy will glide at relatively high speeds in a forward direction while slowly rising to the surface.

[ What is claimed is:] [1.]1. A water toy capable of gliding under water at a relatively shallow angle, comprising:an aerodynamically streamlined body having a density less than water and defining a center of buoyancy, said body having a guitar pick shape defining a wider front portion and narrowing to a back end thereof;a right laterally extending wing and a left laterally extending wing, said right and left wings coupled to said body and oriented to resistance vertical movement of the body while providing relatively little resistance to forward movement of the body.
