SSN Riggin - The Riggin, which was a long range reconnaissance submarine, had a crew that busied themselves artistically during the long voyages. All manner of art was produced in her berths. Days were spent carving scrimshaw, chewing and sewing leather to make bags and making instruments out of all manner which led to much merriment on board. Often selling their wares to locals at ports of call.
