[PSUBS-MAILIST] Uc3 Nautilus

[Jon Wallace via Personal_Submersibles]

I don't think this event fits the typical mold related to regulation so 
I'm not worried about it.  What ever happened, it seems clear to this 
point at least that we aren't looking at an accident caused by unsafe 
equipment or operation.  BBC news is reporting today that authorities 
still believe it was an intentional scuttling of the vessel and that 
Madsen has changed his story regarding his dropping the reporter off on 
an island. I've received no contact from the press and wouldn't have 
enough verified information on the matter to issue a statement.

My concern lies more with MUVMTS and their perception that this event 
necessitates them to move faster with their regulation proposals which I 
think are an overreaction to begin with.  I hope to have a response to 
them and the Coast Guard by the end of the month.
