A replica of a Revolutionary War submarine spooked New York City police and the U.S. Coast Guard today when the egg-shaped vessel was seen bobbing near the Queen Mary 2 luxury liner docked off Brooklyn.
But the handmade wood-and-fiberglass submersible — a replica of David Bushnell's one-man American Turtle, the first submarine used in combat — was the work of artists, not terrorists.

Yeah... well, do think he should have registered the craft?
