A nother Russia thread by Happy Times

When in 1985 i was vacating with my parents as a kid on Black Sea, we all clearly seen a submarine on surface in far distance. How I remember? It went uder water after a while.

That was pretty cool though. So things do go there, away from beaches... But doubt it was a nuke.. but no way to check. So lets pretend it was the biggest and meanest boat. :P

I first saw this in MosNews. Thing is it could conceivably be a real picture.

I know Murmansk is way north but in the Summer time I wouldn't be surprised if it got warm enough. Depends where the beach was. There could be beaches there.

Regardless though it is a bloody good picture.

The only thing that far north on the kola peninsular where these submarines are based are mountains and even in winter its not warm enought to look anything remotly like that.

The amount of times ive been there ive yet to see a beech or indeed hot weather (mind you most my trips were in september)

Don't you mean summer mate?

I guess we'll have to delve deeper.

Like Type941, my first sights of a boat were when I lived in Helensburgh (Scotland) as a kid in the 70's. I used to see boats like Dreadnought or the Resolution bombers going in and out of Faslane through the Rhu narrows which are only a few hundred yards wide.

Severodvinsk has a nice 7 km long beach and during the summer heat waves temperature can rise close to 30 Celsius. Current Google Earth image shows one Typhoon located at there.
