Reply to comment by BrockVegas in The fast battleship USS Massachusetts at rest as a museum ship [1290 x 1304] by liltunny

If she’s in the water, she’s floating. You can just have it sitting on the bottom😂

USS Intrepid is sitting on the bottom of the Hudson River.

Really, didn't know that, the Intrepid was one of the best museum experiences I've had, as someone who loves naval history, aviation and spaceflight history it ticked all my boxes, I was a kid in a candy shop.

Edit My wife said to add to this that she is not a battleship person but that she loved the intrepid, and to tell y'all if you want to do a military history thing but still something the wife and kids will enjoy the intrepid is good, so much cool stuff.

I agree, it’s a fantastic museum. Officially it’s supposed to be floating, but it will often be settled in the muck at the bottom of the river…unlike the USS Kidd, which is out of the water completely due to the level of the Mississippi River.
