Top to Bottom:
Thomas A. Edison (SSBN-610)
Skipjack (SS-585)
Snook (SSN-592)
Henry Clay (SSBN-625)
Unknown FBM (SSBN-???) it's a Ethan Allen-class
Lapon (SSN-661)
Dace (SSN-607)
Skate (SSN-578)
Swordfish (SSN-579)
Sargo (SSN-583) (the longest submarine in the picture)
Seadragon (SSN-584)

Across the pier are:
Thomas Jefferson (SSBN-618)
Patrick Henry (SSBN-599) (not in view)
George Washington (SSBN-598)
Barb (SSN-596)
Sea Devil (SSN-664)


oh..... Google is the magic!

Apparently all these submarines have had there reactors removed on that picture.

...actually the boat was built that way. French artist Julien Berthier built this perpetually sinking boat from an abandoned sailboat. Certainly a cool piece of functional art, but I do wonder, why did he name it Love Love? :?:
