Turbulent

I hope that after an age of trying to post a picture that this works! The model is of my Trafalgar class SSN - Turbulent and was taken last weekend at Inverleith.

I love submarines, but the thing that's always confused me is, when you submerge them, do you A.start praying that they come back up and B.once they are down there how do you see them?

I always breath a huge sigh of relief when the periscopes reappear - and prayer helps too! Waders and a pole should be kept handy! Our pond is extremely murky so missions at periscope depth are the safest. I envy clubs like Norwich with much clearer water.

Nice pic there of the sub.

Just be thankful you have fresh water, our local lake is salt, and not a good idea for submarines!

Turbulent is 1/64 scale and measures 53" approx. This is a Sheerline Trafalgar kit that has been remodelled as Turbulent. I believe the real one was last seen in Singapore last month. I hope to post some pics of Resolution, U-25 and Seawolf in a day or two.
