Re: U.S.S. Inaugural
If you haven't paid your last respects to the ship, best do it real soon. I went there yesterday with the gf and it is being cut up. Large sections of hull have been removed and the bridge area is all but gone, placed in a large pile of metal nearby.
Re: U.S.S. Inaugural
dammit! I was going to go yesterday and look, but the weather kept me away.
You get any pics?

Re: U.S.S. Inaugural
I did get some pics with the gf's camera but I ruined her usb port trying to get them off. Something about my foot getting tangled in the cord and a circuit board breaking... 
So yes I have pics they just arent accessible at this time.

RE: U.S.S. Inaugural
We went out there today and snapped some pics. Ran into Nic while we were there too 
Re: U.S.S. Inaugural
My pics aren't that spiffy color/quality wise cause I had to use my cell phone camera. But I'll post them soon.

Re: U.S.S. Inaugural
The stuff they've torn off so far (mostly the bridge and some hull plating ) is laying in a pile next to it.

The bridge is seeing heavy salvage currently.

Re: U.S.S. Inaugural
Not much happening at the rear of the ship currently, except they bent this up.
The front is also getting salvaged. You can see into the side. These rooms appear to be crew quarters. Some of the metal frames for the bunks were still attached and still had springs. I saw two wood dressers with drawers half opened partially buried in mud.

The river is projected to rise 6 feet with the rain coming today/tonight/tomorrow.

RE: U.S.S. Inaugural
It should have risen 6ft a week ago! Fuck! It'll be worse seeing it half tore up until the water comes back down again in 10 years...
Re: U.S.S. Inaugural
Maybe it'll wash some of the silt out and make it more explorable.
