Corner Brook.


This is coolbert:

More of a continuing and repeated topic. Greater danger and damage done to a submarine while a boat in harbor, docked, not at-sea, undergoing repairs. Very common in fact.

Now, Canadian style HMCS Corner Brook!

Thanks to Lee Berthiaume, the tip from Blazing Cat Fur.

"The Canadian Contractor may have caused permanent damage to Canadian Navy submarine HMCS Corner Brook"

"OTTAWA -- An internal Defence Department report has pulled back the curtain on the damage caused by an errant test on one of Canada's four submarines last year, suggesting some of the damage is permanent and could continue to pose a risk over the long term."

"Obtained by The Canadian Press through Access to Information, the report represents another setback for Canada's four submarines, which have spent more time in repairs than at sea since being bought second-hand from Britain in 1998."

DAMAGE A RUPUTERED MAIN BALLAST TANK. DAMAGED DURING "ROUTINE" TEST! SURE ROUTINE. THEY ALWAYS SAY THAT.

See a previous blog entry [with many additional links] damage to submarines while docked, not-at-sea, moored, very common.
