Scratch Akula. Nothing special you say? Ha! Pedro has installed a NITRO (that's gas) engine to turn the screw (on a snorkel equipped sub) and an electric motor for deeper UW opps!
The second gas/electric combo is for his upcoming type XXI project!
Snorkel for near surface opps with NITRO gas power!
I'd be really pissed if that were my sub they blew up! What were they doing?
And that underwater photo would have won the SubRegatta photo contest if you ask me. What an incredible shot. The coloring is phenomenal.

Pete,
My guess is the photo has been colour corrected. I have started doing this now as well as time permits. It helps remove the underwater washed out look.
My friends:
The picture of my VIIC was taken by the Salvador Moron UW camera, and the colors are the originals. The picture was taken in the Annual Regatta at the pond of Lloret de Mar. The bottom of the pond is sand, the water was very clear and the day was sunny. Really the camera is very good and it was "good luck" take all the pictures with this colors. This is not usually. We have a lot of pictures wich aren't so good.
