Not a problem Mookie. The curator for Cavalla is headed this way for some parts. As far as showing you around, I leave that up to Chuck who served on the Torsk between 1964-65. He earned his dolphins on the Torsk. She is the at the top with the most dives ever (surfacing also ). The last to fire a torpedo in anger during WW2. He can tell you more than anyone. She needs work but has become a labor of love to the volunteers. But, yes, if you get here a private tour before opening at 10 am for sure.
