Re: Calling all Thresher/Permit class (SSN) fans
One more question - is there a place online where original docking drawings or cutaways for Jack or Thresher can be obtained? I would love to have one in a resolution suitable for framing. My Father went to sea on both (he was never formally assigned to Thresher but went out on local ops when Jack was still on the ways at Portsmouth) and these boats are a big part of our family's story.

Does this help? Or this? Note: the images I have are slightly larger than this (about 1400 pixels wide) but had to be reduced for display here.MikeK wrote:One more question - is there a place online where original docking drawings or cutaways for Jack or Thresher can be obtained?

High-res plans are hard to come by, but I have these to offer in addition to Maarten's:
