Yall need to reach out to Ryan and Battleship New Jersey. The videos are to far apart, and the music takes away. Market the ship ladies & gents. Teach the people about what they need to come see. Document and drive couriosity.
Where has the Texas preservation been during this historic restoration? Why haven’t you all been taking advantage of the restoration to make daily videos and updates. This is a one in three generation opportunity to do an amazing job documenting and educating the public about your ship?!!!!!!!!!
You all should be ashamed of how ascent you have been during the ships restoration. Almost no videos and literally no educational videos about the restoration. The New Jersey made daily videos and used the time to ensure future generations could see in-depth documentary level videos. Shame on the Battleship Texas foundation.
So awesome, loved visiting this behemoth as a kid. Very appreciative to everything the foundation does for this relic. I am so glad she’s getting her well needed restoration!
WoW.... what a big 'ol beautiful hunk of iron! Thanks to all of the workers and everyone involved in her refurbishing. Long live our great 🇨🇱Texas🇨🇱 battleship. God bless our military heroes that served on her🇺🇸
I first toured Battleship Texas when I was around ten, took my son when he was ten. I will hopefully get to take my Grandkids to see her as well. First visit was in 1980, can not wait to go back.
In Sweden if someone offers you a drink, the reply can be; -Oh, thank you, but no... I have been in the drydock for 2 years now... (Usually meaning you were far out on the Seven Seas of Rye before... But not now.) (Personally, i have been in the drydock for a year.) Do you have that expression in the States too?
Wow. She looks beautiful. It is great to see you keeping these old monuments of human enginuity alive. As a german I wish we would have at least one old era battleship or cruiser left, let alone one of the big ones. But for obvious reasons we don't. My great uncle went down with Scharnhorst. We still have some nice U-boats and smaller vessels and really nice musuems, but everytime I visit the US and get the chance I make sure to visit an old warship or aircraft carrier or something like that. These old behemots are just fascinating to me.
Show the Engine Room and explain if you can. As a boy scout we spent a night aboard about 1970. Te ER's was open. it appeared like a stem reciprocating ER.
