[PSUBS-MAILIST] Jodie B Oyster Beds dive

[James Frankland via Personal_Submersibles]

Hi all,
The launching method is more desperation really.  The slipways (boat ramps)
here are not steep enough. I’ve checked out every one.  I need 1.8 meters
to float off the trailer.  There are a couple that would work for a trailer
launch but they are in the main harbour and the dive sites are rubbish.
The bobcat works well, it just takes a while. We have big tides here, 10
meters some days.
Cliff.  The “viewport” mods to the main tanks were supposed to be so I
could see through.  But they are not big enough to be very useful.  Would
love to bring the boat to the convention, but the cost would be just too
much....😤
Anyway,  kind of video photo montage here.

James
