RE: Increasing speed with air bubbles

Hello Kurt,

It\'s been a while since I\'ve read \"Clear the Bridge\", but I seem to recall O\'Kane using that tactic while chasing a fast moving Japanese cruiser from astern. I believe lookouts on the cruiser spotted the Tang in their wake and turned a spotlight that direction. Once spotted, O\'Kane dived the boat.

Regards,
Tom
