But hey, you'll spend the rest of the week bitching about how much everything costs, because you got to tour
the world's first nuclear submarine for FREE!
The Wardroom (you may have noticed by now that rank has it's privileges!):
Commanding Officer's Stateroom:
XO's Cabin:
Forward access hatch:
Watertight door (there are three of them you'll have to pass through, so I hope you're not "big boned!"):
Sail access hatch:
AN/WQC-2 panel:
Fuse panel:
Periscopes in the attack center:

The hatch to the reactor compartment (nothing to see here, move along...):
