RE: [PSUBS-MAILIST] little sub brother wants input



Bob, nice drawing but a bit hard to interpret! The ballast tanks, if thatīs what the "saddle-bags" are, seem an odd shape and I'm interested in the rationale for it. It would appear from the shape that their center of buoyancy would shift aft to forward as you blew them... could complicate things. Also, it the "bump" on the front a viewport? It seems a non-standard geometry that would present problems if you go for a 1 atm design.

Hi all,
 
I know this is the usual question when a newby like me updates a design, but, would anyone like to go to my site
http://www.compustyle.net/psub/  and look at my newly updated PSUB design.
 
If anyone has the time, I sure would appreciate any thoughts you might have on the new layout.
 
Bob T.
