Today I started testing the electrical systems (HP air systems have successfully been tested). It was rewarding to see the battery monitoring system, depth sounder, aft thruster actuator, interior lights all come to life as expected. The general electrical system seems healthy.</DIV><DIV><BR></DIV><DIV>Later today I will try the thruster controllers. If I have a problem, it will be here. I am experimenting with "inexpensive" eBay controllers and I am emotionally preparing for a hardware failure. Maybe I will be presently surprised. If things go well I am on track for having enough operational systems to start my in water testing this year. Even if I have to rework the controllers I should be in the water next year for sure.</DIV><DIV><BR></DIV><DIV>I am really looking forward to joining the "operational" sub guys.</DIV><DIV><BR></DIV><DIV>Steve</DIV><DIV><BR></DIV><DIV><BR></DIV><DIV><BR></DIV></DIV></DIV><SPAN style="font-size: 10pt;">
