[PSUBS-MAILIST] Pampanito



Hi All,  I'm heading up to San Francisco next week (to see Toots and the Maytals ! )  but while I'm up there I'm going  to check out the USS Pampanito WW II submarine.  This will be the first submarine that I will have the pleasure of stepping aboard !  I saw in the archives that there is a small one or two man sub on display also.  I'm still not clear on that hatch seat, does anyone know if hatch details have changed much since WW II?   Also if any one knows of a small submersible in California that one could take a look at, that would be really helpful !  My hatch seat delma is whether or not there is a ridge on the seat that fits into the "o" ring groove or is the hatch seat just flat.  I think there are probably variations of both.   Sorry that I'm just beating this to death !
