[–] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 1 point 8 months ago (1 child) Yeah that's weird. You gotta keep your wooden boats in the water like we do.

Which is quite a lot for a boat. In fairness, she was 150 years old by that point. Now there's a vast system of hydraulic rams supporting her in the dry dock, to the point that they reckon she's better supported now than when she was afloat. permalink fedilink source parent
