S.S. Great Britain, Picture 6, Edited Version, Bristol, England (UK), 2012

S.S. Great Britain, Picture 6, Edited Version, Bristol, England (UK), 2012
Unfortunately, having been abandoned from the 1930's to the 1970's, and having been run into the ground (literally) before that, the S.S. Great Britain is in such bad condition that preservationists have given up hope of relaunching it. The hull is riddled with rust holes, in spite of repainting, dehumidifiers in the drydock, and so on. I noted that the Great Britain's condition was much worse than the Olympia's, and by a wide margin. I think this is something the Olympia's custodians should bear in mind, that the Great Britain was preserved in spite of its condition.
