follow the money... who owned this boat prior to Mark?

Previous name was "Sally H VII"

Sally H VII was commissioned for E.E. Hayes in 1971 (who also commissioned the Sally V (1960) and VI)

Who was E.E. Hayes?... well that took a while. I finally found "earl ewing hayes"
http://dlaweb.whoi.edu/PHP/FAID/faids_files/MC-90_Hays_E.html
A nuclear physicist and oceanographer who worked for the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute. His expertise was undersea acoustics which he used to image previously unmapped ocean depths

while employed at Woods Hole, E.E. Hayes designed a 4 seater mini submarine for the Office of Naval Intelligence called the "Alvin".

With Navy cooperation, our group at WHOI, under the leadership of Earl Hays, drew up specifications for a somewhat changed and enlarged version of Sea Pup that was deemed more suitable for the anticipated scientific work. WHOI put this proposal out to public bid, and after discussions with several
potential builders, General Mills was awarded the contract. The cereal maker initially offered to build the sub for less than a half million dollars. After WHOI's additions and changes, it would cost nearly twice that amount. Meanwhile, General Mills sold off its electronics division to Litton Systems, Incorporated. Litton, however, let Froehlich complete the job.
On 5 June 1964, as a spring sun shone brightly overhead, the little sub was christened at Woods Hole. It was no longer Sea Pup. It had become Alvin, a name that was already being used informally by WHOI's Deep Submergence Group, which was in charge of preparing the submersible for sea duty.

(am I crazy or do those early WHOI yacht watermarks kinda look like the blover logo?...def triangle symbology)
@shewhomustbeobeyed @vindicator @letsdothis3 @think- @blacksmith21
do ya'll think Epstein's yacht could have a mini sub?

"personnel to oversee the project. In March, he chose Earl Hays, a physicist by training and Navy officer in the Pacific during World War II, who had worked at Brookhaven and Los Alamos"
So E.E. Hays was a navy man through and through, and he was pivotal in Nuclear development:

PATENT ON PARTICLE ACCELERATION....ATOMIC ENERGY COMISSION
US Navy was pouring money into oceanic research for the very practical reasons of underwater warfare. I think yachts are excellent covert military vehicles as they are "independent"
Edit: Alvin was originally launched from this 105 ft vessel (Lulu) made of two pontoon boats
http://dla.whoi.edu/ships/2d2aa4d8-c3db-4e24-b223-7346efb13d8a
Admittedly the izmo is only 80 ft, and was originally only 71, but it was built 10 years after the original Alvin was conceived, so I could see a more miniature 2 seater sub fitting w/in.
For example the 2 seater Triton:
https://tritonsubs.com/products-services/all-subs/t10002/
At 10.5ft in length, the Triton 1000/2 has a deck footprint which allows it to be easily stowed on-board your yacht. A single existing crew member can be cross-trained to pilot and maintain the submersible. The Triton 1000/2 is an excellent choice if the owner wishes to be the pilot as he or she may dive with a family member and share the experience.
The 3 year ownership clause that the non-profit had to sign to receive the yacht makes me even curiouser

This is great research for me because I have been eerily sure for over a year now, that The Beatles were killed on the solstice of June 1964. They were put into a submarine and dropped to the bottom of the ocean somewhere near New Zealand, because the clip of them arriving Wellington airport was the last we see of that iteration of the fab 4.
I can see why such a vessel would be highly prized by Epstein, because it is through these human sacrifices that they get their power to build greater Israel and the 3rd temple.
Sorry if this sounds far-fetched, but it's the way I see it.

Hate to support this because it sounds so ridiculous, and makes matters even more confusing, but, :Allyn Vine was one of the very first scientists to think of the possibility of looking at the deep sea in an underwater vehicle. The Alvin is named after both Dr. Vine and the famous cartoon character from Alvin and the Chipmunks. Alvin and the Chipmunks were a toothy musical group. Strangely enough, there is a McCartney present. In the 2007 CGI/live-action film adaptation and its 2009 sequel, they were voiced in dialogue by Justin Long, Matthew Gray Gubler and Jesse McCartney. Of course there was a part where they got lost in the Pacific in Alvin and the Chipmunks: Chipwrecked. This baby is all yours.

YouSogoth.......far fetched? How about this....those who believe that the continent of Atlantis was ever a thing are called conspiracy theorists.......but the govt. does research into it , keeps the documentation on it secret. There may be occ. mention of seeing things underneath the water that are man made around Bimini & the Caribbean Islands. Ships and planes have disappeared and still, very little mention....not like say, the latest big shooting. Ernest Hemingway 's mother was very interested in Atlantis and had the great 20th century psychic, Edgar Cayce, at her house for a month...Cayce did a lot of readings about past lives of people who lived there. And Hemingway was also very psychic. (reading a book of his letters)........Psychic ability runs in families and the times when they were alive, they may not have wanted that information out. Atlantis had some great weaponry which probably had a lot to do with the entire continent going under . The missing ships and planes go down in the area where many think Atlantis was located........and probably has something to do with the weaponry...........since our govt. is so into weaponry , maybe Ghislane and Jeffrey were looking around under water for sightings of past civilizations..............as well as dropping off bodies? Hemingway lived in Cuba a number of years which is also close.

Can you explain what you mean by "the last we see of that iteration of the fab 4" ?
Are you suggesting some, or all of the members were "swapped out" ?
[–] IIJOSEPHXII 1 point 0 points 1 point (+1|-1) ago
Yes, the 4 on the cover of the album "With The Beatles" disappear at the time A Hard Day's Night (album & movie) is released in the UK. The album for AHDN has the replacements on the cover and they feature heavily in the movie.
The replacements are also swapped out at the retreat in Rishikesh, but they come back and you don't see the Rishikesh 4 again.
