I had a dream when I was 10yrs that this all was possible when I was a kid (I used to draw the ships and how they fired BB and rockets and torpedo's etc)...So much stuff has happened in my life and I'm glad that some one has done this stuff..
Was just thinking of putting something like this together (albeit with soldered aluminum cans instead of balsa wood, and actual small boilers instead of electronics for propulsion) and my first thought on recovery was some fishing line and a bobber tied to the bow, rolled neatly on deck of course.
I have seen these videos and think once I have a new 3d printer, I think I want to build on of these only I’d love to design and build a BB with 3 turrets, 3 cannons in each turret that actually fire. But Id love to one day design one that takes it to the next level. Imagine each turret being operated by its own gunner using a vr type headset for each gunner so they can aim better. Imagine that. 3 gunners and a skipper commanding/driving the ship. I will make it a reality one day lol great video mate!
Would be cool if you could get your own private man made lake and when a ship sinks after the game you recover and gut them so all that's left is the frame and super structure and you fix the structure on permanently and re sink it to have a ship graveyard and since they get their electronics back they got to build a new ship to avenge their old one and you could make videos of the underwater grave yard show the plants and algae take over would be cool
