...what this large hump is on the stern of the Narwhal? Photo taken on Oct 8, 1994 in Norfolk.
Since this was announced publicly at the Tolling of the Boats last Sat I can mention it here.
Adm Herb Bridge (ret), a driving force in founding the Keyport Under Sea Museum, said that he has been in discussions with the Navy about getting Narwhal for this area and they are listening. I believe much prep work has already been done for the failed Louisville effort. Moving it would only be a 20 mile tow or less.
