Anyone visited the USS Cod?

I haven't! I've always wanted to.

(Website here)

It's a near fully restored US WWII Era submarine floating in one of the great lakes in Ohio. I've planned multiple times to visit, but things come up.

Anywho, I'm making the trip this summer if I can help it, and just wanted to see if anyone has had the pleasure of visiting themselves, and what they thought about it.

Thanks!

Not the Cod. I've been to the Cavalla, Pampanito, Lionfish, and Cobia.

See Gargamel for the Cod.

Plus, photos, or it didn't happen.

The Cod's deck gun is not locked up... the hand cranks for vertical and traverse still work. If i remember correctly the sight is in good shape too.

its a playground for sub fans
