[TheForge] tow tank Way OT

[Bruce Freeman]

A "tow tank"?  Is that like a wind tunnel for ship hulls?

Hey Dave,
If you think it's hard to understand Welsh you should try talking to the 
old-time ship yard workers around Clyde Side West of Glasgow.
If you get to Glasgow and have time you might want to visit  the Denny Tank 
Museum located at Dumbarton Castle. It is still a working tow tank that 
dates back to Victorian times and developed and tested the hull models for 
some England's most famous ships.
