Ben and Kondal
This is a pic of my and a friend of mine by the bottom of the ship. It was really cool to be able to see the ship from the bottom up , while she was out of the water !!

Getting a new paint Job
This is what the ship looked like during the time she was getting painted. Look at all the anti rust spots that were needed. Ya, it looks nicer now all done!

Back of the ship
This was me standing on the propler on ths ship. It is the original one, which make it 92 years old. So there a small bit of history there, epesially with me standing on it !!

Holding up the fort !
Talk about holding up the fort, This is me holding the bottom of the ship. Well actually I was only really touching the bottom but still it looks kinda cool !

At the bottom
Just a quick pic of me standing at the bottom of the ship !!

All New and painted
This is what the ship looks like when its all painted nice and finished. Actually seeing the ship like this out of the water, really put the whole big ship in 1914 in perspective. Because really this ship is quite big , not so much for todays standerd, but back in 1914 when she was built I am sure it seemed huge
