Amateur submarine builder unveils tin can dive on lake
Bill Johnson of Jenison Michigan and four friends watch as the 14 foot 5000 pound homemade submarine is lowered into Pigeon Lake near Port Sheldon. Johnson, 46, built boats since youth and served in World War II. He plans a one tenth league voyage with a four day oxygen supply and depth capability to 1235 feet. The craft reflects decades of dreaming and two years of hard work before launch. Ottawa reports Canadian Arctic Circle park near Baffin Island. 8200 square miles.
