[PSUBS-MAILIST] launch cart

[hank pronk via Personal_Submersibles]

Steve,
Thanks'  the lake test was uneventful.  The cart floated very even front to back but had a bad list.  I corrected it by removing styro from the one ballast tank. The true test of the cart comes next week when I start diving Gamma.

 Hi
 guys,
 
 I have posted pictures of my launch cart in action with
 Gamma onboard.  The cart can drive onto the trailer with
 Gamma on it.  The cart spins out at the top of the ramps
 because there is not enough traction on the frozen wood
 deck.  The ballast pontoons are temporary to establish what
 will work best.  Once I have it perfected I will have
 aluminum pontoons built.  Tomorrow I am driving out to a
 lake to test the cart's ballast system and make sure of
 the freeboard before launching the sub.
 
 Hank
