Re: depth gauges



Submariners,

I'm working off a set of K-350 blueprints of Capt. Kittredge's.  I've not
yet purchased the depth gauges so I've no idea of the cost, but he specifies
part No. 1009A produced by Ashcroft Instruments-W.L. Blake & Co., (207)
773-6462.  Since the K-350 has a safe operating depth of 350', I'm assuming
the gauge should operate to at least that depth.  Hope it helps.
