So they’re shutting down tours for August because it’s too damned hot. The Leg gave them $25m to fix some more stuff, so they’re likely in dry dock at least through the end of 2023, perhaps into the spring of 2024. They’re going to resume dry dock tours in September for an indefinite period. So if you want to see the ship, which I highly recommend, book it. Here you can see the measurements of the steel depth on the bow in thousands of an inch. Anything below a third they consider replacing or patching. One of 157 blocks on which the ship rests. Bottom to top it’s oak sheet, concrete block, sand table, oak sheet, oak block. These are the new torpedo blisters. The guide explained that they were not sure if they could maintain buoyancy with the 1912 hulk profile, which some were advocating. It doesn’t need to have the fairing down underneath the hull as it’s never going to be under steam again. Ship bottom with steel plate removed so you can see the state before sandblasting, steel replacement, reframing. Marks for checking the torpedo blister welds.
