nobodysfriend Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 It would be better to clean the ship off anything toxic and sink it somewhere near a coral reef . It would be a place where coral can grow and at the same time protect the reef from the fishing nets . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tifino Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 taking along with it; any Refugees and Stowaways - as the Breaker Yard would always be in need of replacement labour (high attrition rate) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember they bought the aircraft carrier, at considerable expense, then bought second-hand used Harriers but forgot to buy the necessary spare parts that would be needed. Maybe, the submarines came with no torpedoes. 'nuf sed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
