Re: [PSUBS-MAILIST] little sub brother again



Thanks Dewey,

Your critique was great!  I had begun to consider the bottom issues and
entanglement, and I'm sure that will prompt some design adjustments.

Previous reviews of the concept have allowed me to reconsider ballast
ballancing and my "Saddlebags" which are purely asthetic at this point, so I
really appreciate the critical thoughts of another, especially one with more
experience!

Thanks Again,

Bob Teufel
