ATTENTION:  I am gathering data on the WW2 crew and have compiled a list on the WW2 Crew List page.  This lists the name, rate and patrols sailed.  I'm also wanting to add photos.  Visit the Crew List page for examples, scroll down and click on a name that is a hyperlink.  This will bring up a photo of that crew member.  I'm missing a lot of information.  Please email me anything you have at: ussbatfish@yahoo.com.  Thanks in advance for your help!

Ongoing Events

 
  • Batfish Bow Dive Planes rigged out after 50+ years.  Mark and Ed were able to rig out the forward dive planes on July 10th.  For pictures, please click HERE.
  • Deck Replacement:  The deck work continues at a steady pace. We have ~100% of the old deck removed. All that remains to replace is a section near the bow. This is a very labor intensive project. We need volunteers to come out and help with the replacement of the deck. Contact Rick at the museum or shoot Mark an email at ussbatfish@yahoo.com for more info.  No Scheduled Work Days at this time.  You can check out a graphical deck replacement status HERE.  Follow our status at SubmarineMuseums.org
