Re: [PSUBS-MAILIST] pictures



yup to everything.
Launch was planned for maybe June. As you can probably see June may be a little optimistic.
I have really wrestled with the bow. I need to take on Lake Superior waves not surf. They are
a different beast. Every thing is basically a SWAG.
Over all length will be 20'. OD of no more than 4'
real long legs.
Main propulsion = 18 -  85aph deep cycle lead acid
side thrusters lights and hydraulics 6- 85 - amp deep cycle
tanks on top in rear
250 cuft compressed air
2- 110 cuft O2 max life support of 200 hrs
The placement is to reload in water. If my freeboard is guessed right changing tanks should
be pretty easy
 
Next will be MBT's
one very front of bow
extend rear k350 12 inches deeper
saddle tanks
and VBT system of around 170Lbs
 
Vertical and side thrusters in bow
36 lb minkota vertical
42 lb minkota horizontal
 
12 hp 72 volt dc mainthruster vectored
dive planes front and rear and large rudder
 
robotic arm
 
fly-by-wire
 
etc etc etc
 
Always an open invitation to the big north woods.
welcome anytime.
 
But also know I have a standing agreement with the mosquitos to supply fresh
meat so they leave me alone

Wow Dean, that looks awesome! It's a BIG one. You're making real good progress too. I really like the bow shot. Got a launch date in mind? Can we come and see it? Frank D.
