I was a little surprised he left the SCUBA tanks on. Sounds like he sent C-BUG down near his diving operations, to give some added spice to the ride. If you look at the below picture you can see that the welds on C-BUG are not all that pretty. Karl was pretty young when he started to build C-BUG with no welding training to speak of. So perhaps he decided it would be better to scuttle her then sell C-BUG and be sorry later. http://www.stanleysubmarines.com/captain/images/karl_on_idabel.jpg "We motor off, gliding over Karl’s first sub, C-Bug, which has been dropped in the bay as an underwater feature to attract coral.
