Fitting that the journey is on the Memorial Day Weekend.

Follow the Pacific Battleship Web Site for news and information about its new role as a museum in San Pedro/Los Angeles Harbor

    Again the battle ships needed to be bigger ( much wider)and longer. It also needed smaller and more numerous water tight compartments and deeper draft so even multiple bombs would never reach the magazine. If this had happened we would of seen the entire US fleet engaging one ship and it would of escaped. The design flaws made it fail.
