I took the tour of the Iowa, I was awesome and disapointing at the same time. Yes only ten or less percent is viewable at the moment. But they plan on having several different tour's at some point. Engineering, Armorments, Birthing and so fourth. I am currently drinking my Cup of Joe out of my Big Stick mug that I got in the gift shop on board her. Also got a black mug with "got freedom?" on the front and BB-61 with an American flag on the back. As I drink ALOT of coffee.
The ship was in poor shape, Decks were all rotted, and floors were warped, but she is going to be refurbished with all the proceeds. I even heard that they are soon going to serve lunch's in the aft galley which I thought would have been cool. So everyone, if you visit. Buy something in the shop to help restore BB-61 "The Big Stick" Iowa along.
