Next thing I knew, the owner told me that a group told him about all the safety features that were needed to avoid the "danger". Not wanting the "danger" at his marina, he decided not to allow subs there anymore, including mine.</div><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1499792010785_3139" dir="ltr"><span><br></span></div><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1499792010785_3139" dir="ltr">I was the one that got permission from the Army Corps to use Raystown Lake instead. It was no problem at all. I didn't talk about drama. I answered their questions. They said yes and gave me free use of the visitor center to boot. We had about 6 subs that year and had a great time. I kept my sub at Raystown for another two years diving it with no problems (or attention).</div><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1499792010785_3139" dir="ltr"><br></div><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1499792010785_3139" dir="ltr">Today the Army Corps requires a lengthy process to grant the same permission. Some where along the way they changed their minds about submarines. It is both good and bad. Good because they are requiring some safety items that will weed out the nuts. Bad, because now we are "on the radar".
