Alec,Do you flood all the tanks at the same time, or for and aft separately.?  Does the sub sink evenly and then suddenly tip forward?Hank

Hi Tim,
There's been lots of planning, but offline among those who expressed an interest in attending. To summarize, the dive dates are August 1-3. Snoopy is at the Suhr's but probably will not be diving. Shackleton has an issue that I will be trying to resolve doing canal tests, making use of the calm water, davits, and brain trust on hand. I suspect the issue is that some tanks are flooding faster than others. She takes a nose dive on submerging. I'm not sure the issue will be resolved, but the test location and friends on hand make it worth the trip. R300 will be there and is all systems go, but Cliff's challenge will most likely be habitability given the temperatures, so he'll try to do tows and transits submerged just to keep the cabin conditions manageable.
If anyone else is interested in joining us, now would be the perfect time to speak up.

Best,
Alec

Are there any more details available for the PSUBS convention plans for Islamorada in August?  Not that I can make it to the Florida Keys this time, but I haven't noticed any discussion of late.

Hello Carsten,

Do I understand correctly that SL do not class/ certify personal submarines in the United States?

Thanks,

Greg C

I agree.  Does a wet ambient really need to carry a fire extinguisher?  The current wording is much too broad to apply against all underwater vessels and I suppose this is the basic reason why MTS is trying to make some sense out of it all.

Most 1 atm rules would not fit for ambient. 

Example: A ambient 1 hour underwater at 40 m releasing his drop wright will kill all occupants instandly. 

Two years ago we get an request to certified such ambient bubble scooters for untrained non diver tourist. 

We decide not to follow this invitaion. Somebody else will maybe do.
