Rob Amaral Posted July 27, 2017 Report Share Posted July 27, 2017 Caught her in her old dry dock near the end of her refurbishment period.  Prior to an inspection in Charlestown (Boston) MA USA🇺🇸 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marc Posted July 27, 2017 Report Share Posted July 27, 2017 I hear repairs are about done and she'll be tasting seawater again soon. Â 223 years old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Amaral Posted July 27, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 27, 2017 She is out of the pen and afloat... 'repairs accomplished'... Pretty amazing to be that close with no tourists or guards around last week... Was doing a job for one of the 'olde towne team' boys (Red Sox) nearby...  The drydock itself is amazing...so old.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RK52 Posted August 12, 2017 Report Share Posted August 12, 2017 Her history is fantastic. Right on back to the design phase. If you're interested in seeing how this hull is almost immune to hogging, read up on the diagonal riders that shift loads from the ends of the hull to the center of the keel. That and the density of the ribs is just amazing. One tough gal! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
