Thanks Carsten, It looks like we both have a bit of painting to do. I on the other hand have to keep the yellow paint off me some how. It's sorta funny that Ringo Star who sung the song "We All Live In a Yellow Submarine" is coming up to my neck of the woods for a concert very soon.

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.

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.
