[PSUBS-MAILIST] Shop move

[Alan via Personal_Submersibles]

Brian,
the thought came to mind that if you have a flood valve you may be able 
to attach a hose to it on the inside of your hull & fill plastic containers to 
get the buoyancy exactly right. In The metric system a 20 litre container
holds 20kg of water, so easy to work out. It may be a bit more difficult
removing the water! Just a word of caution that if you are having stability
issues & tilted significantly, the water containers could move if not tethered
& exacerbate the problem.

Can't wait to get the sub back in the water,  I'll probably bite the bullet and do a dunk test at the boatyard with the travel hoist.  Going to move some weight forward so I can get that nose down a bit more.  Also, seriously thinking about rigging a 25hp propane outboard the the rear of the sphere so I can get some decent surface speed.  Still need to deal with some of my electronics however.
