Sounds like it worked out well enough, Hank.  Looking forward to the next video.

Tim,

I did not weld runners on, but I remember we talked about it.  I only had to back in until my axel tubes were touching.  The trailer drops off real fast when you go off the end of the concrete pad.  ;-)

Did you weld skid runners from the wheel wells to the front of the trailer, Hank?  Either way, it looked from the video that you needed to submerge the differential to launch the sub.

I did manage to get brave and back my trailer over the drop off enough to lunch.  This sub is an absolute dream to launch and takes less water than Gamma.  It is also a dream to load, even better than Gamma!   The weight is less than I expected and it is very stable at the surface but is poor submerged.  This is an easy fix, more ballast weight countered with more buoyancy up top.  

So far it is good- can't expect it to be perfect first time with my engineering ;-)
