Howdy Sailors,

 

I work aboard a battleship is the New York Class battleship named the USS Texas on the weekends that I am not busy with college.  For yall that are available to come out, I would totally be down to give a free tour since its usually a self guided deal. That said I could not get you on the ship for free, not because I'm greedy, because that $7 admission ticket goes toward repairing our old 101 year old lady. Honestly the ship needs all that money because it's permanent dry dock plans have been re-evaluated and instead of costing $25 Million, its looking more like $50-$75 Million.

 

That all said, I don't know if this was the right place to post it since I sorta only found out about this message board like 4 hours ago.

 

Thank You,

Nice!

 

I'd be interested if I hadn't just recently drove down from Dallas for one of your extensive 'hard hat tours' back in November.  It was an amazing experience to be able to explore the normally off-limits depths of that magnificent ship.  My only gripe was to discover that there were still areas (IIRC it was either the captain's or admiral's above-deck quarters, maybe other places too) that were only open to an even more exclusive level of tour that I wasn't aware of.  Still well worth the price of admission though.

 

Hope the permanent dry dock project goes smoothly for y'all.  As soon as it's complete, I'd love to come down again for whatever maximum-access tour is available.
