Hi thierry,
Had a look at your videos and thought it reminded me of
projects I started and wished I never had.
I haven't built a sub, but just the research that its
taken so far leaves me with no illusions as to the work ahead of
you.
You may find that it takes you away from scouting and
consumes years of your life trying to finish it.
My advice would be to get someone experienced from psubs
to come and look over it. If you had to pay their
air fare it would be money well spent. (is there a psuber
near there?) They could give you an honest evaluation of
the time and money it would take and whether it is
salvageable. It looks like it would weigh more than 25 tones and
just getting the trailer working would be a mission. I'd
also wonder who was going to pilot it and how you'd be placed
legally taking a group of scouts down in an uncertified
sub.
Regards Alan

project videos
Hi everybody, We just want to inform you that
some more pictures have been added in your web page on PSUBS.org. Also,
we have just added few videos of our submersible on YouTube. We invite
you to see them, then you can figure how big will be the job to make that
sub functionnal again! Encouragements are welcome! Actually, we did
not start working on it yet because of the winter time here. In fact, we
are planning to tow it in Montreal by the middle of May, wich
is going to be really funny because the trailer is not legal
anymore after 15 year of "scrapyarding." Scouting is famous!
Thanks for your interrest and you support. Thierry
