Took my mother down for a Drydock tour for Mother's Day (she loves the Battleship), and it was absolutely awesome! Getting to see another side of Big-J, quite literally. Was neat to meet Ryan too, who was gracious enough to take a picture with us. Honestly, this was a really cool experience, and if you're on the fence about it, do it. It's so worth it.

Lol! I don't know if the Navy uses flex seal in the emergency repair kits but they should. The stuff is amazing, last year I had a large tree limb fall and poked a 11" hole in the roof. I was initially freaking out since it was still raining and water was pouring in. I remembered my sister gave me a box with precut flex seal sheets in it. I put one of them over the hole and sprayed half a can of automotive undercoating around the edges for giggles. The repair instantly stopped the leak. I was impressed and my landlord was thankful I prevented further water damage to the house.

What’s the reason for not using something like a helium leak detector?

@SnowmanTF2 14 дней назад

Given the amount of downtime for short (few months) & long (up to two years) term mantence, to generally expect to have one mission ready at any time, you typically need three ships in a planned rotation. Even if that does leave you with two as an option more often than not.

I fully understand why what I wrote is not practical for many reasons but a pipe dream for the imagination.

If you watch Ryan’s previous videos you will see some of the compartments were not used in NJ’s last commission. Also in her last commission the bunks were upgraded to the modern coffins as they are often called. Also the ship had an ice cream machine and a donut shop so it did have some luxuries. Even one stage she had a swimming pool I think when she served during the Korean War.

Because that would require drilling through the *actual* *hull*, which they don't want to do. Those blank boxes are supposed to be removed if the ship is reactivated. Drill through from the inside, and you've just put a permanent hole in the hull.

@@maigretus1 No, they could also drill into the pipe just inside of the hull, and weld in a screw in bung, making future checks easier, even with the ship in the water.

@maigretus1 13 дней назад

@ravenbarsrepairs5594 I consider those pipes to be part of "the hull", in the sense that they are intended to keep seawater out of the main spaces of the ship. Besides, the museum has to keep her at least somewhat ready for activation if the Navy wants her back, unlikely but still possible. I don't think the Navy would allow Ryan to drill a hole in a part of the ship that would be more-or-less continuously open to the sea if she goes back in service.

@MoritzvonSchweinitz 14 дней назад

What I don't understand is, that these boxes are welded on to seal older utility holes in the hull, right? So when air pressre testing these boxes, why doesn't the air escape through whatever the box is covering? I thought the whole point of the boxes is that they could be cut of when need be, so the hole behind them should still be open?

@petermichaelgreen 14 дней назад

Because the valves are closed. It would be pretty mad to put a hole in the bottom of your ship and not put a shutoff valve on it. IIRC he said in a previous video that on several of the openings when they investigated a pressure test failure they concluded it was a problem with the valve rather than a problem with the plating over.

@adrianklaver113 14 дней назад

Because they are looking for leaks in the welds between the box blank and hull not the underlying through hull openings. The box blank is pressurized and soapy water sprayed on the weld, if you see bubbles the weld itself is not water tight. The purpose being to prevent water intrusion through the box blanks and then inside the hull. There have been tests where the welds where good(no bubbles) but pressure was lost due to problems(generally valves) in the through hull opening.
