The Cobia is a great boat. They did a fantastic job in keeping it as original as possible. A lot of the instruments still work, like the radar for example.

I'm going up to Manitowoc on July 21 to spend the night in the sub. I cannot wait. With the regular tour, you don't get to go into the conning tower but with the special overnights, you can. It is going to be fan-freaking-tastic. I cannot get enough of the smell inside those old fleet boats. The potpourri of diesel oil, metal, electronics, sweat that has permeated every surface is absolutely heaven for me.

I'll be going up again on August 18th. They are having the Cobia reunion and they are going to fire up the diesels!! I'll be sure to get a video of that, for sure!!!
