 Hank,congratulations.Why not just pour water on your shop floor. Wait 10 seconds for it to turn to ice& push the sub across it!Having droughts here in N.Z. at the moment.Alan

 Tim, no casters, but I just let it roll into the shop the way it is, then if I want to move it to the side I lift it with a chain hoist on a trolly and roll it to the side.  Easy as pie.  No crane needed.Hank

Hank,

Are any of the wheels under the sub castering? Your launch trailer design looks like it would be easy to roll the sub off the trailer and into the shop without need for a crane.

My launch test of E3000 was a total success and worked better than expected.  The sub rolls into the water effortlessly and only requires 40 ish  inches of water to launch.  The wheel bearings on the trailer don't touch the water either.

Video to follow soon
