I should say hello here, I have been lurking here but more active on SH III, SH IV and some really old areas and sims here.... I bought V a while ago not knowing if it would work on my system and then I upgraded and now have a fairly decent card and system and it seems happy.

I now hope to learn the rope, gather in the essential mods...and launch ..fairly soon.

I am very interested in things naval, coming from naval stock on both sides...US, Brit and German...which gave me some very interesting insights into those times now moving in the the past. Two of my cousins were U boat commanders and both were lost with their boats....another cousin on my mom's side was skipper of USN BB 39 at Pearl and remains at his post. My grandfather was early into the US sub program and wrote some of the then early doctrine on sub nets and anti sub theory....tho he was mostly a surface commander..

From what i see so far of V, it is super. And the mod work is making it better. I am a white knuckle skipper myself still, no pro but very interested esp in the U boat side of things and hope to contribute in time as i can from what i know from what i learned from family history. Cheers and hello and thanks to all for the great mod work all around.

I am an oldie somewhat myself, age wise...just turned 58, older but not really wiser...just glad to be here.
