Fortunately for me and the rest of the crew of the Scamp, the right lessons were learned. We had the exact same casualty in 1986 with the same plant failures and also at test depth. Our boat was older than Thresher so it had very few Subsafe systems, but we did have the Emergency Blow modifications that came out after Thresher’s sinking. The second blow worked and we lived.
Wow. Glad you guys survived!
