VOYAGES OF THE WATERBUG
14 August 2018 XLI
Khamsin Molossia News


The Molossian Navy is proud to introduce its newest submarine, the Waterbug. Equipped with lights and a state-of-the-art camera, the Waterbug is ideal for exploring the watery depths of any lake or river. On Sunday, 12 August 2018 XLI the Molossian Navy deployed the Waterbug to nearby Lake Tahoe, a favored spot for the Navy's many voyages of discovery. The inaugural voyage of the submarine took place at the south end of the Lake, an area called Baldwin Beach. Although this area is known for its unremarkable lake bed, the calm waters and sandy bottom were ideal for the first mission of the Waterbug. Deploying into the crystal waters, the submarine performed outstandingly, exceeding expectations. This mission a success, on the following day the Waterbug was launched into the murky waters of the American River in California, a body of water heretofore unexplored by our Navy. Again the submarine's performance was exemplary, as it explored beneath a dock at the edge of the river. Both missions complete and very successful, the Navy plans for a long and useful future for our new submersible - with many more voyages of discovery to come for the mighty Waterbug!
