Securing my Subdriver is two fold.
First:
Joel supplies with all his kits WTC saddles and a WTC location tab.
The tab is simply epoxied on to a WTC saddle in such a way that the WTC location tab, which is like a little nipple will mate with a little hole you drill in the lower side (near the base) of the ballast tank lexan tube. This insures no horizontal, lateral, or roll movement of the Subdriver.
Second I glue into the hull a series of three velcro computer cable tidys. These secure the Subdriver in place so that the Subdriver stays in its saddles.
For quick release of snort connections I simply use a silicon piece of tubing that acts as a tight friction fit over the supplied grey clippard line. Note also here the Caswell supplied U fitting here with magnet Klickon that engages with the sail plane linkage when the upper hull is applied to the lower hull half.
The snort line (here shown with the quick release silicon on its end), can be kept in place so as not to clash with the operation of the sail planes via running it under the velcro tabs that keep the Subdriver on its saddles.
