Re: [PSUBS-MAILIST] Dumb Question

sorry i meant weight of sub equals weight of volume of water displaced,
the advantage of the metric system for sub design is that you don t have to multiply the weight times the volume of water, because it is the same number, vol in cubic meter, weight in tons. 1 cubic meter sub equals 1 ton.

Well I guest that Idea got shot down. so if I were to find a hull of some short how do I figurer out how much it needs to weight. I checked out some web sites and they had nothing. So I tried the volume it holds times the weight of water and it came out extremely high is this equation right or am I just stupid or is my sub too big because I see must of these subs weight 1500lbs. If some one could answered this I would appreciate it.

P.S. thanks for not letting me fumigate my self.
