[PSUBS-MAILIST] Thanks Jon - FB moderation

[David Colombo via Personal_Submersibles]

Hi Jon, I've never seen the SUBDB site before. It's quite the database.
It's been awhile since I've also added any photo updates on the psub site.
Can you send me the registration code for the SeaQuestor and I will upload
the progress build images.  SeaQuestor at gmail.com
Thanks David.
