I'm wondering did Alvin get a tattoo or earring for his 50th!?

Hi Joe,
yep, didn't think about this trip till about 9 days before I left.
Been thoroughly enjoying it. We had Alvin's 50th Birthday party tonight, & I managed to
corner a G.L. certifier for a few hours as well as yack with the team from Curacao, 
Phil's operations manager Jeff Heaton, Will Kohnen, the Spanish team building the ictineu 3
& a chemist from Blanson who is doing a session on view ports.
Well worth the trip, hope nobodies jealous.

Joe,
I'm at the UI convention in New Orleans & there is a session entitled
Re-Purposing of a K250 P-sub into the research tool of the Undersea
Voyager Project. Unfortunately it clashes with 2 other sessions I'm
interested in, however I believe they are videoing the sessions & they
will be available to attendants who pay for them. Scott might want
to make the session video available to people. I'll keep you posted when 
I get it anyway.

Best views so far Pete, thanks!

Note the LCD screens mounted over the front port, neat as a pin!

 Speaking of prattling, you guys are still prattling
 under the heading Great White Mods. Gonna be hard for the
 historians to track this down in a hundred years.

 What is your plan for your deep

 James,

 I think the cable is 240lbs so I could tie it to
 a soft float like an inner tube even.  Not a bad
 idea!  

 Your hatch closure should work fine, I like to
 pull a vacuum also to hold the hatch tight.

 Ive just
  pratted about all weekend making a ludicrous hatch locking
 mechanism and just reading this article on Great White,
 he used a much better idea.  Ratchet straps. 
 This would have been a lot easier!  see pic.

 Kind Regards

 Thanks Jim, 

 Somehow
 I get the feeling this fellow Scott is too busy for chit
 chat!

 Joe,

 If you got to http://www.underseavoyagerproject.org/ and
 scroll down to the Mission Video you'll see some shots
 of the interior, but there is no description of the
 materials used.

 Here's another video before its latest
 makeover:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a-XGT8rPZs8

 Jim,

 There is a photo somewhere of that subs interior. One
 can clearly see longitudinal slats mounted inside and over
 the ribs.

 I'd like to know what those are as they give the
 interior a smother neater appearance and an apparent
 mounting surface.

 Here's another article showing the external mods to
 Great White.  It doesn't look much like a K-250
 anymore.  There's a photo gallery about 70% of the
 way down.  -Jim
