Wow guys, thanks for the great info! Yes Jon, after looking at the book
link, I see what you mean, very similar. Good work! Now Vance, you seem to
know about the Mermaid II then? Might you know the submersible make and/or
model, the maximum operational depth, and the original designers/builders?
If I could find this information, I would like to update the stats page.
