This page was estabilshed by model builders who like to share their experiences and material around the Gato and Balao Class submarines. One of the main responsibilities is to give a good overview about the available sources of books, plans and kits as well as to give information about them by customers. The page is also there to give helping advice about the question how others had built their subs and to show different possibilities of solving problems when works on the boat get stuck. At last, the page should be a place to find detailed photos and general information about the original boats because not everybody lives next to a museum ship.

All contents of this page are free for private use. We hope you enjoy the trip through our website. Any help with photos, reports, news or anything will be appreciated.
