Re: [PSUBS-MAILIST] future pilot in training

Hi,
I bought the plans, air tank, k-250 submarine, crank off trailer, controls, cb radio, etc. A scuba instuctor in our area had it built in the eighties, it last sailed in 90's in Lake Superior and our local lake Lake Pokagama. Do to his retirement a divorce came soon after and he sold his life long dream to me for a pittence. To make matters worse, after I counted out half the money , he said "give the other half to the Xwife". On the plus side the man is a perfectionist and it shows in the sub. the dome, front port, and controls where put away in the house, the sub sat out side but was farely protected. Its in real nice shape, no scratches on the port or bubble, and clean everywhere else. neg side, the plastic props are shot(I dont know what to buy to replace), the wiring in the sub needs to be replaced, copper air line pulled from swedge loc( I dont trust the rest now), antenna mount rusted. And I need three batteries that will accept the h2 caps. So far just minimal stuff, but a couple of other projects prevent me from starting on k-250 yet. Winter comes on fast some years around here so it may have to wait till next year. 
       thanks for your time, Rob

You bought a K-250? Do tell us more, please. Or do you mean you bought
the K-250 plans?

Thanks,

Alec
(who bought a K-250)

I have returned, certificate in hand!
I am still processing the pictures and videos I took and trying to
figure
out how to best display them.
The experience was priceless and I came away from it with a good

degree of

comfort in my abilities
to operate the K-250, even if only on a beginner's level (hey, I'm

new). I

have definately satisfied my
'learn to drive before you go designing' criteria at least.

I have heard rumor that there are other people offering lessons in ME
and
NH (USA).
Does anyone have any information on these claims?

-patrick, newly qualified operator of the K-250 submarine
