- TheCleric 2y agoThe Battleship New Jersey Museum puts out some great videos on their channel answering questions and showing what they’re doing in the dry dock: https://youtube.com/c/battleshipnewjersey https://youtube.com/c/battleshipnewjersey
- radishingr 2y agoI think they may still have a few tickets to go visit the ship while she is in drydock (as in walk under the ship).
- bell-cot 2y ago"Face-Lift" is a very poor descriptive of the work being done. Taking a 45,000-ton ship out of the water is expensive, and is done only when the bottom of it needs serious work. A better description of the work might be "bottom inspection, rust and leak repairs, and replacing the undercoating".
