[PSUBS-MAILIST] SHOCK!!

[Rick Patton via Personal_Submersibles]

I've got torsion axles (springs inside the axle) and she tows quite nicely.
I went with the 10% theory so I've got around a 400 lb tongue weight.
FYI, my potentiometer was bad so she works like a charm now. The first
launching should be in a couple of days now.!
