RE: [PSUBS-MAILIST] 2 Man Sub From Boston?



Frank,

Seems to me that it was at least 8 ft. if not 10 ft. across and about 6 ft. tall.  I don’t remember the pods being below the sub at that time.  Having the batteries and ballast tanks inside would have contributed to the stability issue.  You had to lie down inside the sub to use the viewports.

Hi Jay. Ya, I remember seeing it before. It looks like it was at least kept inside so isn't a rusting hulk.

My guess is all the good "little parts" were sold off or used on something else.

Do you remember how big it is ? It must be less than 8 feet wide cause it sits on that trailer with room to spare. I'm curious how tall it is too.

It would be fun to find out things like where the battery banks were, and how much ballast lead it took to make it sink. I printed it so maybe will give him a call tomorrow. I wonder who is the current owner, there's no reserve on the ad, looks like he's just tired of paying for storage. Could be a fun project if it's not rusted solid. Frank D.
