Yankees dragging for sunken Hunley. Eight more drowned rebs! The tragic deaths were due to my sloppy manufacturing and indexing of the servo wheel for ballast venting. It was slightly off so when I lost contact in the depths of the chlorinated pool, when the subsafe fired, the wheel rotated a tad too mcuh so it was venting at the same time the pump was trying to inflate the bladder. DOH!
My bad. Enlarge Image
