Congrats!!!
Painted yellow and with the extra viewports, your boat looks almost exactly like
Mark Ragan's. I'll be happy to share any K250 information you find
useful...

It took a bit of tapping with a hammer, but I got the lever
to move to release the drop weight on my very own
K-250. Sent: Tuesday, July 01, 2008 3:33 AM To: PSUBSorg Subject: [PSUBS-MAILIST] I dropped the drop weight on a K-250 That's right my fellow SMMO's, I just finalized the deal to purchase the Kittredge K-250 #105, that was built after the Brook's K-250. My K-250 is the one build for Dr. LeShack, that is talked about in the Captain's book on pages 260 and 261. Now you all know some of what I've been up to of late. ;)' I have loads of new data to tell you guys about this sub. Alec I'll be needing to take you up on your offer for tech help. Jon if you could forward this email to the Captain and ask him if he has any more data on the Dr. LeSchack K-250 #105, like pictures, a Bill of Sale to know the date sold, as well as any other data would be wonderful. From what I can gather the sub and it's trailer were built in 1977. I was also able to get the trailer at the last minute. The last owners modified the trailer a bit by adding six feet to the front bed, so they could use it for another application. I'll have to cut it back again or beef it up to handle the subs weight better. I'm guessing that the #105 means that my sub was the fifth K-205 model George and his crew built. Jon you can tell George that that the wooden plugs are gone, the Sea Co electrical thru hulls didn't hold up well, and that Dr. Leonard A. LeSchack has a doctorate in Geology. I'm a bit jazzed as you might imagine. ;)' http://www.frappr.com/?a=viewphoto&id=2628470&pid=10107229 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rp2RN4j9-00 Obstacles are those frightful things you see when you take your eyes off your goal. - Henry Ford "Write a wise saying and your name will live forever." ~ Anonymous Cheers, Brent Hartwig |
