Trip with UC3 Nautilus
 
She can sail on her own now. We expect her to be able to dive in 2-3 months :D

Wow.

Jimbuna 09-21-08 10:42 AM

Coming along really nicely....looking forward to seeing her in 2009 http://www.psionguild.org/forums/ima...s/thumbsup.gif

I really look for seing how fast she will be able to dive...Peter made the holes in the bottom for the water intake app 3 feet wide!

You can see the main ballast tank valves in the video... 1 in the bow and 1 in the stern.

Peter told me will be able to sink VERY fast :D

Jimbuna 09-21-08 12:05 PM

I'd be more interested in how quickly she can surface :lol:

Frame57 09-21-08 12:27 PM

Agreed! Submerging is the easy part, surfacing well that is another story...:D

Deamon 09-21-08 01:38 PM

Awesome!

I am wondering how much the building has cost ?

Deamon 09-21-08 01:58 PM

When it's ready for a test dive take her way out to sea, preferably where there's a deep trench, then do a crash dive!!:lol:
Just kidding, hope it all goes well!:up:

Think of all the cocaine you could successfully haul in that thing versus the submersible jalopies the current runners are using.

lesrae 09-23-08 12:16 AM

She's certainly motoring along - what sort of speeds are you getting?

Crusing speed is 4-6 knots. Max speed is 9 knots I think

McBeck 09-23-08 10:19 AM

I just added a Video of Kraka too :)
