[PSUBS-MAILIST] (no subject)

[David Colombo via Personal_Submersibles]

Hi Hank, The rib that I was driving at Tahoe was a 10'. For most of the
time it was ok with two passengers. However the large seas that Jon and I
experienced on Cliffs dive at San Harbour were a bit of a challenge. For
towing we had a merc 15 which for that boat was probably oversize in the
weight class but not power. When I was towing the R300 back around the
point, with the larger waves, you definitely knew you had 4000 lbs behind
you. I would go 12' min and maybe the same size motor if I was going to be
towing the SeaQuestor.  You don't realize how much gear you have as a
support vessel until it's all around your feet after taking a 4'+ swell.
The extra length would take care of that problem. I'll be looking at all of
those issues as I look for one.
Hey question, Did Tahoe charge you for launch and recovery for your rib as
well as the sub?

Best Regards,
David Colombo
