Can anyone direct me to where I might find scale drawings of the Trieste? This is the original, built in 1953, that went to the bottom of the Marianas Trench, not the Trieste II. I have the side view diagram, but am also looking for deck detail and other detail (sail, ballast hoppers, towing hardware, etc.).

All my mental images of the Trieste came from National Geographic issues in the 1960s. Have you looked there for images?

Pit Road made a 1:100 scale kit of I or II, apparently long sold out.

Simple side image here as part of a lesson plan in bouyancy: http://www.marinetech.org/rov_competition/2010/Trieste_Model_Detailed_Assembly_Instructions.pdf
