Torsk Work Weekend 18

September 30 - October 2, 2011

 

The topside crew readies a skid for lowering into the FTR.

The three skids were left topside during the 2010 torpedo load when we ran out of time for loading. 

It was good to finally get them aboard and into the FTR lower flats.

The skids were removed from USS Trout SS-566 during a strip ship in 2007.

 

 

Lowering the skid into the lower flats.

 

 

The skid had to be rotated onto its side in order to fit between the torpedo tubes forward, then it was shifted aft into place.
