Hi,
For the people that haven't already seen the "shark boat", (my first attempt at a
sub), go to www.yel-o-sub.com and look at the "shark boat" photos to see
something I made from a aircraft wing drop tank. The wing tank cost about $100 as
scrap back in the mid 70's. I still have it, but it's disassembled.
