[PSUBS-MAILIST] Motor Pod

[Alan via Personal_Submersibles]

Well done Brian.
I am just wondering about the orientation.
You say it is the port thruster. Are you driving the boat with the occupant sphere
at the rear? Also the vectoring of them, Is that permanent or just for the photo?
While I'm at it, what sort of horsepower are they.
Cheers Alan

But it ran really smooth, had a bit of trouble when I machined the end caps, they weren't totally perfect, think I'll have the machine shop make a stab at it .  There were difficult to line up in my lathe and they were literally at the very maximum size my lathe could do.  But all my snap rings and o rings and epoxy thru hulls are good to go !
