Well if were all crankin' in unison in that converted boiler which killed its first two crews in training...including Mr Hunley, with our scaly tails interlocked...we won't be cold  worth a read: PS & new detail I was not aware of: the torpedo was supposedly electrically detonated with copper spool and battery! http://www.militaryfactory.com/ships/detail-page-2.asp?ship_id=CSS-HL-Hunley-1863  The hatches were so small you had to hold your arms up to get in. Crew # 3 sank something....the third times the charm? A very cool site for any sub fanatic http://www.vernianera.com/Hunley/reconstruction.html
