I seen that an historic submarine the German Tours66 an working submarine for 
the precious coral harvest still exist. This boat was build in Luebeck in 
Gernamy in 1970 and was used for the harvest of Coralium rubrum (red coral) in 
the mediterranean sea.  A few days ago I found in internet a picture of the boat 
in a Junkyard near Malaga spain taken in january of 2011.  

As soon as I have more infromation I will send it.  I am in touch with the 
person who published the picture and he promised to send me more information. It 
would be nice to save this little sub from the melting pot.
Best wishes
Juergen

Betreff: Re: [PSUBS-MAILIST] K350 Main Tanks

James,

If we assume that a normal K350 is in trim on the surface and on dive station 
and 

you shift the forward tanks to middship saddle tanks and let the aft tank as it 
is 

- the boat will be on the surface bow heavy in trim. 

A mix of saddle tanks and a rear tank will be hard to combine. 
The saddle tanks must be more forward than usual and the rear tank relative 
small. 


If you want to go that way  make sure that the center of volume of your tanks is 
the same 

with your side saddle - stern combine as on the original fwd.- aft solution. 

On the Eurosub we have the saddle tank center forward the center of underwater 
displacemnet. 

Means it is stern heavy on the surface and in level dived. For seaworthness it 
is better the 

boat is on the surface stern heavy or in level - but never bow heavy.
Bow heavy tends to dive in each wave, is therefore slow under tow and looks 
really uckly.
