Known Vehicle Quirks

  • Can’t hear you over the music! The drive requires loud Sousa marches being played in the engine room to function. Very loud Sousa marches.
  • Operation: Petticoat: The hull turns bright pink when the drive is engaged.

Known Crew Quirks

  • No ’Danes Here: The crew is made up exclusively of Fen and Fendanes; they likely cleaned out the entire USN’s stock on non-’Danes to find enough to crew the Stingray.
  • Three-Hour Tour: "Willie" Grumby is the daughter of two reasonably-famous ex-castaways, and treats all of the people marooned with her biological parents as her parents.

Trivia

  • The Stingray has the highest percentage of female crew in the US Navy submarine service.
  • The ship has a ’waved mini-sub (similar to a NR-1 nuclear rescue vehicle) as an auxiliary craft.
