Re: [PSUBS-MAILIST] Check Lists

[MerlinSub@t-online.de (Carsten Standfuss)]

All psubs wants to running over night should/must have navigations
lights. For subs or ships running only at daylight it is not required.

But Sgt.Peppers has a very bright yellow flashlight running all the time
on the neck. Just to show the rescue-divers were the dammage boat
resting on the bottom in the mud.. and showing light during surfaceing. 

Flashlight ion peppers shown at 
http://www.psubs.org/psub_pic/sgt_pepper.html  
at picture no.4

TZhe cover is from a car - and the light itself is a scuba diver battery
power pocket unit. Same bulb as aircraft have. 

Euronaut wil run overnight and wil have navigationslight
inside the acrylic-mast : Top, red and green and also a bright yellow
flashlight. 

regards Carsten
