    I think the barge is something like twice the size of the ship, so it's been a no go for any naval museums who it has been offered to.

    On second thought that may not be such a bad idea.

    I does need water for the sides so we can have a giant "slip and slide" on it. So just how many gallons per mile does it get?
    I see you running, tell me what your running from

    Nobody's coming, what ya do that was so wrong.

    Hey now! I think it would be good for me to take out some of the little guys and know not to screw with us. I am thinking a jolly roger style flag with a white co-ar15 boltface in the center of the skull!

    now where is my captain hat!!!

    Either way, count me in! I can't cook, so don't ask me to be the ship's cook... I can't clean so don't ask me to swab the deck ye landlubbers, but dammit if I can't play video games pretty damn well so I guess I can be the helmsman... I can drive anything with wheels (and many others without).

    Oh did I mention- I can provide quite a few busty wenches! Garr!

    I second the slip and slide notion.

    As long as you are not trying to play the "let's go after the big Jap fishing boat with this little skiff" crap I am all for it.

    Either way, I'm in. I'm too old and married to know a large number of "healthy", morally flexible young ladies, but I feel like this is the first order of business after we find somewhere to dock the S.S. Screw Pelosi.
    I'm in. Don't worry about the morally flexible young ladies, I've got things covered there.
    Seriously, how the hell does nobody want this thing? I mean sure you need to take the barge with it, but damn you know how much cash you could get at the scrap yard for that?

    That is what I'm thinking. Take the minelayer and the Sea Shadow, then just sell or donate the minelayer to a scrap company.

    Unless it's a Navy stipulation that they MUST remain together...

    Default Party barge my ass!

    Let's go smoke some somali pirates!... on the other hand I guess the name "Party Barge" still works.
