Compartment Bills
« on: September 13, 2011, 12:51:39 PM »
Is anyone alive out there?  Surely there must be something going on aboard one of the museum boats.

Torsk needs copies of compartments bills, preferably from a boat that was converted to snorkel, but we'll take what we can get.  Rich Pekelney was good enough to send us copies from Pampanito once upon a time, but following a painting accident, we found that the ones he sent us were ruined.   Over that last couple of years, the ones we had posted in the compartment bill holders have managed to become souvenirs.  Can anyone help us out?

Thanks

Although there are none posted on the boat, I recall seeing them, I think, when I was helping sort out some pubs awhile back.  Give me a few days and I'll see if I can find the ones for 343.

I've sent you scans of the Quiet Bill and the Emergency Ventilation Bill, which is all I have found so far. 
Will try looking again next week.
Remember this is a Guppy III boat, converted in 1963.

Thanks, Buggsy.  All I got was the FER compartment bill for emergency ventilation. It certainly is what we are looking for.

Mike - perhaps a longshot but if you have TORSK's construction or overhaul drawings, you should find complete compartment checkoff list wording.

I'll check with our archivist.  Thanks, SOB!
