I've been waiting for you to post some pics after that teaser you posted a while back.<br>
<br>
I have a few questions.<br>
<br>
How about Woodstock<br>
What are the service panels made of ?<br>
What is the deck grate made of ?<br>
What size are the stern floats ?<br>
Do you have 4 saddle tanks ?<br>
Can you change the HP tanks with the boat in the water ?<br>
What is your total drop weight ?<br>
What is the Stainless ? rectangular bar attached to thrusters ?<br>
Could you share a drawing of the thruster jettisoning mechanism ?<br>
What happened to your conning tower ? Is it for sale ?<br>
<br>
Thanks Pete<br>

Hey everyone, I'm<br>
breaking cover with the project sub. It is in need of a<br>
name. If the pictures inspire any thoughts that are not<br>
rude, I'm all ears for suggested names!<br>
