Info on Tench Class / GUPPY Subs

[fwjeff]

Has anyone see drawings or other info on these? I'm looking for SS-486 Pomodon in particular (my Dad was a torpedoman on her). From what I have found so far she was built as a Tench Class & then went through the GUPPY I then GUPPY II conversion.

Here are several places where you'll find reference information & photos, but I'd recommend starting with Mario at IBS since he makes the sail & sonar dome kits you'll need. The Guppy pictured below is from their gallery page.
