Where ae the torpedo tubes?

Or the missle tubes.

Can't have a submarine without torpedos or missles.

Take care.

Diving underwater with marine-plywood to keep the water presure out??

Hmmm, each 33 feet of depth is another atmosphere. Atmosphere is
what, 14.7 psi? So 33 feet is 29.4 psi? Wonder how much presure
plywood can take?<!-- ~MESSAGE_AFTER~ -->

Looks like it's about to go for around 2 grand - maybe someone is
buying it for their ex's recreation...<!-- ~MESSAGE_AFTER~ -->

Bilge- That MUST be the sub in Oakland, CA...I saw that last week. Mentioned it
to the gang at muster in the machine shop...we laughed and laughed.

The 1st AE, who's an ex-bubblehead,checked it out on his laptop also, which
started an entire round of jokes about this...thing... we "doinked" on the
monstrosity for the duration of the auction.

Nobody in their right mind is going to submerge in a plywood submarine built
in some goober's garage, less'n their aim is to commit "sub-maritime
suicide"...and let's face it, cinder blocks are lots cheaper.

Proof of the adage:

"Just because it CAN be done does not mean that it SHOULD be done"

G'luck;

Wouldn't this death trap need some certification/registration?

Good point.

I have licensed home-built boats before with the water cops, but they really
don't care much about the construction. They are more interested in you
having all the required safety equipment.

I knew one kid who rigged up this home-built boat, with a crappy pulley
system, so he could steer the outboard motor from the front. He used duct
tape, coat hangers, dog rollers...it was a mess, but the marine inspectors
oked him, since he had all the safety requirements.

Sorta scary actually...
