Wow, $ 15 Million just for rust removal, wood deck planking replacement and new hull paint. And we thought P-51's were expensive to restore.....

Just be glad we don't have to worry about their money problems, where $1 Million won't get your poop decks swabbed! :D

She was certainly in need of a tidy up when I was there in early August. I had read about the drydocking so wasn't too concerned. A volunteer would be as busy as a sailor chipping paint!
