Voyage of submarine proves long ocean trip feasible
The crew provisioned the boat with 6000 gallons of gasolene and added 3000 more at Bermuda for emergencies. Captain Huey Momm led a two day three night voyage to Bermuda and back with storms and seasickness, the Storm King tug companions experiencing trouble. The return trip was faster, and Momm asserted submarines can operate far from port and be ready for service after long journeys, noting tobacco abstinence and tight safety rules during the voyage.
