<font color='black' size='3' face='Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif'><font class="Apple-style-span" size="3">Good news about the hydraulics. Paint is fine. If it gets boring, add some red stripes for contrast. Speaking of banged up, a testament to how tough these little guys are--back in the 70s, the sister sub Beta rolled off a trailer in Washington state and down an embankment. They winched her up with a wrecker, touched up the paint and mopped out the battery compartment and still made their scheduled dive the next morning. Let's see anybody else try that and get away with that.</font>

<div><span>Thanks, I will give her a smooth paint job after the first test etc. They tend to get banged up before everything is sorted. How do like the white with yellow tail? I like it, and since I wrote the check, I get to pick the colour :-) </span></div>
<div><span>I just got the manipulator working, turns out the pump is working fine. The valve is sticking and causing the pump to over load. I will tear the valve apart tomorrow and find the problem. I mounted the valve right behind the nose cone so I can take it apart without removing it. </span></div>

<div>I just posted four new pictures showing my progress of gamma as promised. I was hoping to operate the manipulator today but the hyd pump is not pumping oil. I am hoping the oil is to heavy and cold to get sucked into the pump, that will be an easy fix.</div>
