Daily submarine picture

We had a bunch roll thru the other day as well, when TS Andrea spawned after sitting on us for 3 days. "Tis the season" and nothing jolley about it. They say its going to ba a doozie of a season this year too.

Here we have a DSRV sitting on the old Seawolf. I have a picture of the Seawolf somewhere with out the DSRV and I was wondering what those white things were. This picture shows that they are mounts to attach it with. Also note the closeup on the grilles. Awfully big for intake grilles seems to me.

The aforementioned intakes.

Old SEAWOLF was a 'projects' boat. Spooky stuff. While the WEBSTER was in Guam working up for another patrol, the SEAWOLF slipped in at night and I put my hairy eye-balls on it. At that time it was equipped with a phony DSRV on deck -- a decompression chamber used to house saturation Diver's after a mission.

Those grills are the intake-discharge ports for position-keeping thrusters.
