Man I love this stuff.:rock:

Yes, nice pictures; and as Neal alluded to...you lived to tell of the experience!:/\\x:

lol - you can always call a day a success with a bonus like that!

Thanks for the great pics, mookie -- enjoyed those. :up:

Namedropper!

I saw you in the pics Neal posted; looks like you guys had fun. I agree with the others, your interior shots are great.

These are all great pics, and it got me to thinking about an off-topic:
When I click on Neal's or mook's picture links above, it opens in the same window (blowing away the Subsim forums in that window).
And I even use Firefox with special Tab Mix Plus to pretty much fix everything to open up in a new tab, and not in the same window.
So ... does anyone know how, when providing a link in a forum posting, how to make it open in a new tab or new window? Is it even possible to force it?
Thanks.

Mookiemookie, great pics ! And congratulations, it must have been a great expierience :D

Mookiemookie and Neal,
Great pictures, wish I could have been there to help. I don't recall electric winches to help load. All we had was pulleys. block and tackle, and chain falls. But then again there was a whole lot of hands to help.........Great Job.........

No electric winches for us either. Chain falls, manual winches, and elbow grease. :up:

Mookie,
Did they let you load th "fish" in the torpedo tube?

No, while that would have been really neat, they were stowed under the crew bunks on the port and starboard sides on the floor for display purposes. Getting them in the hatch and into the compartment was only half the work. Actually moving them over to the sides was a big job as well!

So you met the great god? :rotfl:

A question though. What's that glass circle in the Controol room chart table?

That was the compass. Sorry I didn't get a good shot of it. I was just overwhelmed with trying to get upclose shots of all the interesting gauges and controls that I missed some. I'll have to go back one of these days. :up:

Hi All,

Great pics Mookiemookie! Thank You for sharing them with us.

Thanks Mookie!!:up:
