Wow, you're really outdoing yourself with those CAD drawings. Beautiful design, too! I'm going to pass this to some Navy friends. It would be neat to get the real NR-1 crew to look at it.

.....I certainly hope so! This is my transport scheme between the
manufacture / maintenance facility and marina launch.
The text "Concepts in Submarine Design"...has a very interesting explanation
regarding initial "sizing" of a design with respects to the mission and end
user requirements.
I am finding that this is not so easy as one little change effects 12 other
things adversely. However, it looks like I will have room to expand the hull
to 48" diameter )for comfort and machinery access reasons) and the lengthen
the hull by two feet while still maintaining weight within the limits of the
rig you see here.
.....to be continued.
