Comments by "WALTERBROADDUS" (@WALTERBROADDUS) on "USS Olympia - Pint-size battleship in a cruisers skin" video.
While most happy to hear the story of the Olympia; you skipped over She is docked here in Philadelphia, PA! 🤔 It is part of the Independence Seaport Museum on the city's Delaware Riverfront along side the submarine Becuna. These days sadly, most tourists rather go across the river to Camden, NJ and visit the more impressive USS New Jersey. Leaving the Olympia under visited and underfunded. 😞

The folks in charge of the ship lack the funding.

 @RedXlV partly true. Some dredging would be needed to get her to the ship channel. The drydocks of the Navy Yard are only a short tow away.

 @johnstark4723 The drydocks at the Navy Yard are only a 3 miles tow away. They would need to dredge a path to the main channel. Once at the drydocks, they can fix the hull.

 @tewsgcdcfgechk908 She is the only surviving warship of the Victorian era or post wooden ship USN. She also is just pretty not being painted grey.😎
