Re: [PSUBS-MAILIST] Sub at Portland, OR boat show



Hi Ray - some smaller mistakes in the article

- S101 was british built by Marlin Sub (Paul Moorhouse) 
  and only sold or rent to the swedish navy. 

-"remaining two subs.."  There are only two units build : 
  S101 and S102. A later but clear different design was S103 "Lula"

All displayed here :

If you can - take pictures for Psubs - special from the inside..  

great designs - all three, regards Carsten
