RE: [PSUBS-MAILIST] First Launch



Very, very nice.  Did you figure out if the conning tower leak is going to be an issue or if its just a momentary thing during submerging?  How does the view out front look?

	Hi All,
	
	First Launch 5-4-2010 at about 4:30 PM - Lake Michigan.
	
	Went well. A bit tail heavy I think. No leaks except a small one at the conning tower o-ring just as submerging. Controls worked well as did the thrusters. I will do some ballast changing prior to the next outing. All in all a great launch, much anticipated after about 5 years.
	
	Best Regards,
