    Aircraft Carrier...888 foot Arti Reef... woah

    That is a big AR. It'd be cool if this pulls together. Maybe So Cal can get this thing... $92 m in revenue wouldn't suck for my state right now.

    If this has been posted on the board already, I apologize. I didn't see it.

    Why don't you write a letter to Governer Arnie suggesting they do a similar project with another mothballed carrier (if there's any "floating around" )? I'm betting he's scratching his head trying to come up with ways to honor election promises. Plus he's a diver, so he might be keen on the idea personally!

    You know...

    Maybe if I look in the Florida Conch Divers room (for of all things, a carrier being sunk in Texas) I might get an idea or two...

    Actually, right now it appears to be headed off of Escambia COunty, Fl (near Pensacola).

    Check the other threads for more info...

    We have also been discussing this over on the stop, too...

    Well, few months ago ship&boat magazine was advertisint the only Aussie carrier (now decomisioned) for sale. So if noone over the ditch plans to buy and sink it, you can always try Arnie .

    They call Arnie "The Crusher" because a tank will only last him 5 or 6 minutes.....kind of like crushing a tank.

    From Bruiser to Cruiser

    Probably the split fins and SeaQuest Black Diamond dude uses.

    And that huge flutter kick...get a grip, T3.

    I mean. if he'd just lose that huge console and get a bottom timer his drag coefficient would drop significantly and so would his SAC - anyone knows that.

    Probably uses ankle weights, too.... Rookie.
