damaged too much!

No damage (except to my mental stability!) its a tough old boot - although built as a narrow boat for UK inland waterways it was also designed to be able to navigate tidal waters - and we have been down the Severn Estuary as far as Portishead . . .

I have always been interested in subs - my father took me to see what I think was a real U-Boot being scrapped at Cashmores in Newport when I was about three years old and 35 years later I was privileged to be invited aboard and shown round a modern American sub although I think the conditions aboard could hardly be compared with those of WWII . . .

Welcome aboard and enjoy SUBSIM!

Interesting your "mod" for better immersion in the game...I never played SH3 or SHIV in a boat. But I played SH3 in an airliner, installed in a laptop, a 8 hours flight hunting allied merchants. Great fun!

Regards.
