We've gotten the question, "Why did you turn the turret" a lot in the last couple of weeks. We get it frequently in response to the out-of-the-box ideas that end up making ship the special place it is.
In this podcast episode we answer the "why" behind what we do.
Haven't seen the turret turn yet?

I’m really happy to see the Iowa get some attention and recognition on RU-vid. I love all the videos Ryan Semanski puts out on the New Jersey, but I also want to see she her sister ships get the same love and attention.

I bet Iowa is the envy of all the other museum battleships right now.

This is the right approach to preserve history. Thank you, thank you and thank you again for your unlimited passion.

It was awesome to see the video of the turret moving. Also my first CO was the last CO of the Iowa.

Preservation wise it's looks amazing, i like to call it "a living museum"

@BattleshipUSSIowaLosAngeles 11 месяцев назад

The turret was rotated for the same reason that people climb mountains.

thank you for keeping the Ship in order and looking great. If you need help moving bullets, let me know. I have A LOT of experience with moving them.

@BattleshipUSSIowaLosAngeles 11 месяцев назад

Thank you so much for that!

I know that feeling when machinery starts to run up and the ship feels alive .Sadly none of the RN. ships I've worked on have been preserved so it's great to rekindle a few memories with your videos .

It's fascinating to know all of the work to make this possible. Kudos to all those involved. 👍

I have never wondered why they do it, I'm just glad they are doing it.

In an age where digital media has consumed everyone, people are starting to become fascinated by mechanical objects. Things that are real, that move, and that they can see, hear, and feel for themselves. The digital revolution has left a hole in people's souls. Things like a working battleship turret or a steam locomotive give people a welcome break from that.

I RESTORED THE INTRUDER ON MIDWAY'S DECK FROM 2000-2002

@lauraaz3015 11 месяцев назад

Have you considered using Iowa’s own winches and crane equipment to onload the projectiles? Just one more piece of equipment to be preserved through restoration!

@BattleshipUSSIowaLosAngeles 11 месяцев назад

That's the plan. That's why we rotated Turret 3.

@JB-hu5jm 11 месяцев назад

My dream is to hear the boilers amd turbines running again. One day…

You Have a "SCUTTLEBUTT" Program!!! Do you do 'LIVE STREAMS'??!!

@BattleshipUSSIowaLosAngeles 11 месяцев назад

Sometimes. We do them for some events and we've also done a couple from areas deep in the ship.

The Porthole Podcast "broke" the news that future plans for the Iowa call for cutting through the hull for a new entrance, gutting compartments behind it and widening the interior corridors. Wont this compromise the watertightness during any potential large storms and allow rust to spread even faster on the inner hull once you have it cut open due to moisture? I get that it's been done on other ships like the Yorktown, Queen Mary, and Victory; but those are either in permanent drydock, or have a much taller hull above the waterline. I love how you folks are all gung-ho about getting parts of the ship restored to a potential "operational state" , but I dont like the idea of permanent alterations to the historical fabric that once gone cant be put back.

@johnlowe37 11 месяцев назад

I'm afraid some changes will be necessary to accommodate the development of the National Museum of the Surface Navy. If she were the last of her kind, I might find that troubling. Fortunately, the Iowa's three sister ships are also preserved and aren't likely to be altered in the same fashion.

@BattleshipUSSIowaLosAngeles 11 месяцев назад

You know what happens with internet rumors. Don't believe everything you hear.
