Hi Ya'll,
 
I'm in Atlanta for awhile now, the big move from NZ 
!
 
Thanks Vance for the recommendation  of the book 'The sun 
beneath the sea '. I ordered it from Amazon, they found me a used copy, sent it 
to NZ and I read it with great interest ! If I am a typical customer, Amazon 
should be making money, they did out of me ! A great service all the 
same.
 
The book I found very informative and a great lesson in 
leaving no stone unturned in the quest to achieve a project.
 
Who Vance, is Silvercrest, where is the sub, any idea of the 
condition and $ to purchase ?
 
We went to Tampa in Florida the last weekend where a friend 
works on a 200ft Coastguard cutter which I got to look over, very 
interesting.
I also got to see the big Russian sub that is for sale. Only 
from a distance though, next time I'm in the area I will try for a better 
look.
 
I think I am the only one in the psub group that is in Atlanta 
carrying the flag but I would if possible, like to meet up with anyone in any of 
the nearby states if I get the chance. I will be down Florida way again soon it 
seems. So let me know where you all are and I'll see if I can make it 
!
 
I have been keeping up with all the posted emails to the 
group, long live the group, the world is a better place for it ! You guys all 
worn out ? Nothing controversial lately ? Not expecting a coup at all Ray ? I'd 
watch that Big Dave guy, he might be getting ideas from my Pacific neighbours in 
Fiji and the Solomon's (two great sub hotspots !) and he might be behind the 
Haiti job. He always wanted an island of his own or a great psub site to run 
!
 
Regards to you all,
Karl.
