Isn't much of the Holbrook sub made of concrete? I think it is only a few external bits that are genuine. I've been through the sub at Fremantle. Supposedly it is preserved and displayed as it was on its last day of service. That is well worth a visit. Any town that could get one and display it like Fremantle will have a good tourist attraction. Sadly though the cash to do these things properly is usually lacking. The long running saga of HMAS Cerberus a good example.
