Doug your killing me. ;)' I'm willing to convert. Lets make my K-250 into an ambient. Just imagine all the crying. I think I'll need a inward lipped seal for my hatch to pull it off. Not to mention a few other holes. I had thought that if I found some nasty pitting or massive cracks on this hull I might make it into a top and bottom exit ambient some how. I'll just got in my supply of copper slag blasting media, and will start blasting this week. But first I have to get it off the trailer some how, some way. I could use a helicopter. Also cutting it in half will make it lighter. One of my favorite ambient subs, is the ResortSub DA (Dry Ambient), with it's top and bottom hatches. http://www.ivccorp.com/resortsubda.html " Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.

Googled "www.psubs.org" and I see that the purpose of the group has been changed this week from:
"To promote and encourage the discussion, design, construction, certification, ownership and use of Personal Submersibles." to "To promote and encourage the safe design, construction, and operation of Personal Submersibles." So no more "discussion", and only "safe design". So who gets to decide what is safe? Since the only recorded deaths I am aware of were in 1ATM subs, I guess we don't talk about 1ATM subs anymore?
