Scott,in the G.L. rules the crush depth can be 1.73 x your nominal dive depth& the test depth 1,2 x nominal dive depth for pressures over 60 bar.That means, if you want to go to 3000ft, then have a crush depth of at least 5,190ft& test to at least 3,600ft. Not sure what A.B.S. says.That would be great, visiting Karl if you are building something similar.He would have a lot of experience to share. I beleive one of his view ports brokeonce because of an uncalculated flexing or compression of the hull.Wonder if any other Psubbers are interested in heading down that way?Alan

Hank,The way it looks, I think building from scratch unless I get a good deal is the way to go. I might be taking Katy on a surprise vacation to Honduras in just a bit and do a deep dive and a ton of pictures down there. I have sent a quote request for the two 1" thick 60" diameter heads of 516 gr 70. Thanks,Scott Waters

Scott,
The trail went cold on the Pisces sub in the UK.  I just spoke with the park people and the sub was on loan and the owners took it back 4 years ago or so.  We could press on and find the owner but I suspect if you could but it, it would be quite expensive.  
Hank
