Hey! I see yours has water streams! I want that mod!:rotfl:

Seriously though, that is pretty cool. What boat was the camera filming from?

Task Force · 10-08-08, 06:54 AM

Cool, and you all were in perfect fireing position for that large greay/white ship.

I wish I had a sub.

Brilliant stuff. Two beautiful boats there, did I hear the Kraka shout "Torpedo Angriff"?

Great stuff

From the Nautilus

The dude you see on the bow of the Nautilus is me

Another video from that day:

She begins dive trials in 2 weeks. Iv seen the trim tank system tested - cool stuff!

You put a SubSim logo on the tower!

Oh cool! Inside shots.

Oberon · 10-08-08, 12:56 PM

Is that a rifle on the side of the conning tower?

I sure did - it was a last minute thing and a tribute to Neal.
The company above the Subsim logo paid 8000$ for its logo there - Neal got it for free

Yeah - just a toy rifle. We picked it up at one of our stops. Its not there anymore...

Oberon · 10-08-08, 01:08 PM

Thought it looked quite unlike any rifle I'd seen before. Cool shots of the boat, she looks an absolute beaut. Look forward to seeing shots of the diving tests.

Shhhyyyyyy.....the engine on Nautilus actully failed one time when she was about to dock at another ship. That gave a shudder

It was due to a mis-calibration of the engine or something like that - all fixed now

Now do you have an opening for cook?
