 Hankso you are done with the pool all ready? to bad to go to all that work to not keep it. I have a net float for my emergency release buoy which is rated to 3,000' which is overkill but that's all I could find at the time but it only has an 8 lb buoyancy when submerged and so when I add a small weight to the bottom of it to make it stand erect when surfaced and a pennant on the top, it may not be enough. Rick

Making A Test Pool For My Homemade Submarine
 |

 |

 |

Hi All, here is a test pool video.  I am very happy I went to the trouble to make the pool.  I saved a lot of trips to the lake to get it just right.  The sub is perfectly balanced now.  I am real happy with the stability.  There were a couple of problems with the forward fibreglass MBT.  I found several pinhole leaks.  Also when fabricating the tank, I left debris inside the tank that ended up in the vent valve.  That is about it for problems.  I have removed the body and located the leaks in the MBT and will repair them.  Pity the lakes are closed.  I will be on the lookout for some 1,000m foam to replace the temporary floats, in case someone comes across some.

Hank
