Very many thanks indeed. From my knowledge of Arabic I got "shaduf" but I'm sure shadoof is correct. I've since been told 39 is "Butterfly". Know nothing about Scuba so many thanks to those in the know.

71) Plugged in the surface of the earth or a basin (8)...is it plughole.
I though of Butterfly for 39 - but couldn't think of a watery connection. But, of course it's a swimming stroke.
Is 62 definitely 9 letters? A nautilus has a jet called a hyponome.

Yes, 9 letters for 62.......I discarded hyponome because it's only 8 letters.

Butterfly is a swimming stroke, so it would qualify as an answer.
