Lets hope not and these old ships are great for our kids to see and visit. Old ships come in San Francisco and we take the grand kids to tour them. The kids talk about it to this day...

That would look great alongside to the Royal Yacht Brittania. It would be a great shame to scrap her.

I still agree it should be saved as well. Turn it into a visitors station or Museum as it would be a great attraction for people to see.

The Brittania is just round the corner from it and it's nearly imposible to photograph.
