Hunley - the beginning
I did a short video on the Hunley today on my channel. Link below (plug lol) I like to put in a little history in my channel along with actual game play. Honestly it's an interesting story, by Clive Cussler who actually found the Hunley on an expedition with NUMA, (National Underwater Marine Agency)The same NUMA talked about in his books.
Did anyone notice the shroud around the Hunley's propeller? Was it innovation or coincidence? It was to protect the propeller of course, but the inventor stumbled on the propulsor system, still used today. In any case what brave crews manned this boat!
