I recall there being some issues in making non-playables playable. However, it is cool that someone got a start on that submarine already. Might be about time to reinstall the old beast (DW) and see what new stuff I can add to her. Thanks for the heads-up, TLAM.

Its sad too see those Fleet Boats go...but they're nearly 70 years old...way beyond their useful life. with that much metal fatigue i'm guessing its dangerous to go much below periscope depth!

It is sad to see ships come to the end of their lives and being cut up for scrap. The Australian navy has made it a policy of late to offer retired ships as artifical reefs to any community who wants one. It has gone well, except for one or two occasions, and there is usualy a fight to see who gets one!
It is also a more honourable way for a ship to go. |

I wonder how much it costs to maintain one of these ships (non-sailing/ static)? The USS Ranger? is coming to Ore-gone at some point, but I don't know the timeline.
