Last Night's Meeting

Thank you to everyone that came out yesterday, we made a lot of progress!

To update those of you who weren't there: In addition to Peter and myself (the divers) we had several experts including an Engineer, a Maritime Academy Graduate and a Mechanic to get everything done right. We put all the ballast systems into place, repaired the ballast caps, and attached all the cables. We determined that the pull/control cables are the issue with the "blow tanks lever" and that they need to be replaced. As soon as we replace the cables, the sub's systems will be functioning normally and we will be ready for our first "pool dive".

Jesse (Mr. Mechanic) found the pull cable parts that we needed today and we will be meeting again tonight to begin installing them.

See the pictures from last night below. Nothing like a good red wine (Malbec) and a submarine after a long days work!
