    Seaview Georgia Regatta

    Would someone please bring a working Seaview to the Georgia regatta in September? I would love to see one just once.

      I am planning on it.
      If you can cut, drill, saw, hit things and swear a lot, you're well on the way to building a working model sub.

          Tom,

          You'll let Casey run it of course.

                      Has anyone tried doing the iconic Seaview broach with their model?

                              Done it. Looks so damned stupid in real time. And it slides backwards and rolls as it does; does not do the forward motion crash into the water as depicted in the movie.

                              I'm posting these just to make Casey nuts!

                                          I had to put out one of yours too. I’m bringing a fireproof bag this year.

                                              My Blueback got broken after I loaned it out to be run by a newbie. Got the broken part glued back, and then had a catastrophic flood which ended my day. Time to get everything together for a test.

                                                      I simply made practical (never again!) what the Art Director suggested on the actual miniatures.
