Chariots For Sport Diving
At least two makes of chariot-like diver-riders for sport divers were on sale in the diving gear trade for a while after 1960.
One of those makes was tradenamed "Dolphin" and was made on the Isle of Wight. In the 1960s or 1970s, both ends were tapered to a point.
Another type was USA-made and looked like a wartime chariot but its hull was thinner.

“A worm is as good a traveler as a grasshopper or a cricket, and a much wiser settler. With all their activity these do not hop away from drought nor forward to summer. We do not avoid evil by fleeing before it, but by rising above or diving below its plane; as the worm escapes drought and frost by boring a few inches deeper.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
