[PSUBS-MAILIST] Sub Complete

Thanks All.

Hi Marc,
No, the pressure hull is as per the plans.  Appart from the dome and the 2 extra front viewports.

Yes exactly.  I wish i had made the forward tank viewports a bit bigger, but I cannot change them now.  View from the dome is pretty good as it is.
Regards
James

What a beauty! Looks like you've actually shortened the pressure hull,
but extended the forward main ballast tank and put ports in it - for
upward vision for occupants looking out through the front dome?

Anyway, a whole lot sexier than the Kittredge boats.

Can't wait to see the first dive video...

Best,
Marc
