Ah, easy!

The sub has just surfaced the first time in three months. The crew´s been smoking pot the whole submerged drive, so now they came to surface to ventilate the sub.

Pot = wrong

Right? :yep:

The sun is shining yet everybody's wearing long sleeved shirts. :88)

ASWnut101 10-19-06 03:26 PM

thats alot of pot, and why would it be coming out of the snorkel? that goes to engine room....

SUBMAN1 10-19-06 03:42 PM

What is wrong = THe sub had a main engine power failure and is unable to move?

Linton 10-19-06 04:25 PM

Look at the wake she is moving!

The sub and tug are facing in opposite directions?

The Avon Lady 10-20-06 01:11 AM

I think I see 2 tugs. Did the sub get stuck on a sand bank? :hmm:

bookworm_020 10-20-06 01:20 AM

The tugs are going backward!!!

Kapitan 10-20-06 03:49 AM

Its not unusual i dont think for subs to run the auxilary diesel motors just so they know they work, also the tug running backwards doesnt mean anything realy the tug is the brakes they do it all the time on big ships and submarines they also act as a steering system.

Linton 10-20-06 06:34 PM

That is the back-up diesel running though I hope it is not always that smokey.It is an s-boat,but not swiftsure.She had a bigger rudder due to not having a pump-jet!

micky1up 10-21-06 12:02 PM

its faslane and its not raining!



the tug has thruster and a propeller that can turn 360 so she can push pull in any direction and no matter what diessels always make alot of smoke

From time to time, don't nuclear subs purge the secondary coolant lines? Something about acid buildup. However, I doubt that's what's going on there. Usually they get out to sea a couple miles and the deck is always cleared so the steam -- which is slightly radioactive -- doesn't hit anyone.

I'm sure that does wonders for the sea life.
