RE: [PSUBS-MAILIST] Re: Submarine Questions? (was "Hey, looky, rocket fuel as ballast!")
Hi Ian,
Maybe I read David the wrong way. Sorry if I did. I'll visit the other site as soon as possible. Thanks.
Are there any others? I found something called the Homebuilt Submersibles Web Ring, but it seems to be inactive. I'd appreciate any information about that one or any others you may know of.
Best,
Gail

Hi Gail,
You didn't say anything wrong, David was just wondering if there was something
you where looking for.
This is another home submarine builder website:
http://www.vulcaniasubmarine.com/
Slightly different to psubs, but still good information. Also it has a discusion
board with some interesting topics.
Ian.

David,
Did I say something wrong? I apologize if I did. I would just like to learn all I can, and I believe it's wise not to limit oneself to a single source of information.
Best,
Gail

imagine a better site than this one for sub
building - etc.
What is this site lacking that someone is looking for
in another site anyway? Maybe it is something we could
incorporate?
