Hi Jens
Clever for the time.I see once the caissons were locked in place the water 
was simply pumped out. After Vance stated that a K can only be towed at 4kts 
my bubble burst .
Im thinking of constructing 2 water displacing pontoons with each pontoon 
having 3 airtight bulkheads ,on flooding the central compartments the 
pontoons should just be possisively bouyant, between the 2 pontoons a 
winchable cradle which once the water has been pumped by bildge pump out of 
the centre compartments can assist in lifting more of the K out of the 
water. With the right desighn one could possibly have wheels with oil filled 
hubs attached to the pontoons permanently to assist with towing out of the 
water.
