[PSUBS-MAILIST] OTS

[Rick Patton via Personal_Submersibles]

Thanks Jon
Do you remember about how deep you got beneath your support boat? The
reason I ask is that some time ago a technician at OTS when asked what the
range should be for that unit in tropical water and I believe he said
around 175’ or so which surprised me as that’s only half of the rated
working depth of my 350.
