[PSUBS-MAILIST] (no subject)

[via Personal_Submersibles]

Doug,I was at Kurt's backyard shop in Callie with Snooper II out in the yard and Snooper III almost finished as a new build. When I asked about his Dad's original sub (this was after the old man died), Kurt just laughed and shrugged. Said his Dad ran out of room in the shop while they were doing Snooper II, and scrapped it out just to clear some floor space. Sad end. Kurt agreed. Said he'd really like to have them all for some kind of display. They competed directly with Doug Privitt and Marfab (the Nektons) and did a ton of work, mostly in California. Losing the original sub to the scrap heap was a sad day, no doubt.Vance

Hey, thanks for chiming in Vance. Any idea what happened to 'Snooper' / where she is now? ~ Doug

I’m not sure what sub it was, but definitely bigger (and deeper diving) than a K-boat. Could probably look it up in the Busby book. Doug S.

Funny, I named my little ambient sub 'Snark' after the 1-atm sub in one of my favorite sub movies, 'Grey Lady Down.' Wasn't aware of any K-boats with the name. Do you know who owns it? ~ Doug S.
