Greetings!

Art -

I have been in the Albacore in Portsmouth NH.

They have a small video explaining why they used two subs.

The Captain of the Albacore explained that the test cruises he went on were very exciting. They sailed as fast as it could go and as deep as it was designer for.

It was very streamlined and had two counter rotating props sttached at the rear.

Up until the video was made, the Navy never told the public how fast it went!

BTW - Thanks for all the good advice you have given to Brickboarders.
