Brent, this is pretty much my CT minus the
hatch. The CT bolts on so I guess you can change the hinge position as
desired. This is the first orientation to the side I have seen. I was
wondering how you could tell that the dogs can be operated from the exterior? Thanks, Steve McQueen, Indianapolis, IN From: owner- Steve, did you notice that some times they bolted on
the CT so the hinge goes to the side of the sub? I had not seen that before. Vance, that hatch has two separate locking dogs that
can be operated in or outside the sub, with a viewport in the center. It
reminds me in some ways or Nemo's hatch. But Nemos hatch only has one dog at
the front. I've seen a good number of subs now with just on locking point
for the hatch, like Idabel. To make that work, they just make the
hatch hinge so that it binds on the seal enough at the hinge
side to make the hatch seal at the surface when the one locking means is
engaged. Paul Moorhouse used only two dogs on his latest sub, the
S301. I can see that the Boy the Brent From: Brent
