Sub standard?

I dread to think of the noise levels of an organ on a submarine! Thank goodness Heavy Leslie hadn't been invented.
Very ingenious getting a thing like that through a hatchway, clever old Stevens!

Can you imagine the organ playing Christmas carols? On a sub there'd be no escape from the noise.
'Good King Wenceslas' blasted out
On an organ made by Stevens
Waking the sleeping layabouts
Otherwise known as seamen
Loudly sang the drunken mob that night
Their echoes inescapable and cruel
Making those wanting to sleep plan flight
At the port where they next refuel

(It should be noted that King Wenceslas was not, in fact, a king during his lifetime but merely Duke of Bohemia.)

Yes indeed, if the volume had been turned up to Four that could have threatened the hull integrity of the sub!
