...After a long haul I've finally gotten a major rework of the Looking Glass Page completed and I THINK I have fixed all the glitches and improved the experience, (?)
http://pigboats.com/subs/legends.html
I don't have the RSS page uploaded yet but that will happen later tonight.
================================================
I am also announcing that before Thanksgiving I will be hosting SUBNET on PigBoats.COM. Don Merrigan has turned all the pages and all the data over to me. I will be working with Dave Johnston, a co-founder of PigBoats.COM, on the rework of SUBNET and hopefully we will maintain the spirit of the original but with a more modern feel. For those who do not know. SUBNET predates Ron Martini's page on the web. Don worked closely with Jim Christley in producing it. I am very honored to have been chosen to carry on the work. |

Ric, I look forward to seeing what Subnet looks like. Many of the members of Cyberspace Base were around and involved with Don and I hear sea stories about him and others. I am glad you will be keeping that part of our history. Viejo |

Outstanding Ric for what you are doing.
I always liked the SUBNET layout. Glad to see you are resurrecting it. At that time It really filled a need in the '90s when boat info was kinda sparse on the net . I recall Rontini and Merrigan were the main resources available. God bless 'em both.
I am glad to see so many excellent boat info sources such as SUBSAILOR and http://www.oneternalpatrol.com/ and many others too (and of course your PIGBOATS). And not to be overlooked is the new and improved USSVI site
Additionally I am finding the search-site: INFO.com (the RESEARCH section especially) to be extremely good. Plug a boat name and hull number and it pulls up a wealth of info with much good narrative and a passle of links. Been using that source more and more.
Keep up the good work.
Sid
