Ahoy!
Looks like something 'Jethro Bodine' built in the 'cement pond' in one of the 'The Beverly Hillbillies' episodes.

Bon Voyage and Good Health!

Are they related to the guy in Mary Poppins who had a ship's wheel on top of his roof?

If he were, then the Roadrunner would have been in the boat pulling him toward a floating mine.

I wonder if this replica had a replica of the original's torpedo? :D

Take full moon.

Add Dog Days of August

One budding NY ``artist''

Ahoy,
Does the sub have formal nights? A knowledgable wine steward? These and other things were sadly not pointed out in the article.

Bon Voyage and Good Health!
