Rumor has it that the Canadian crew was pretty shaken up by that and perfered to mutiney as oppossed to go back to sea in this submarine. REmember that the last part was a rumor.

Substandard welding on the outerhull which caused severe leakage at depth greater than 65 feet

2) The British only had these subs in service for four years due to the fact that the torpedo tube housing was misaligned causing massive leakage. The brit solution was to seal up the torpedo tubes and not use them. this is pretty brilliant considering that the only weapons that the Upholders have at thier disposal are . . . wait for it . . . . Torpedo's
So let me get this straight.....we just bought a bunch of subs that:
-can't dive
-can't shoot
-are manned by a crew so suspicious of its capabilities they would rather be mutineers
-hardly run, and when they do would barely outrace a 10 man olympic rowing team?

Sweeeeeet. So where is Eggleton these days? Isn't he the foreign minister of Rotunda or something?
