She'll be firing up her engines and firing her 5 inch deck gun hourly. I'll be there for sure, hope some of you can make it to see this old war hero in action.

I've never been to see the Cod and I cant tell from the picture provided in the article. I assume it could get underway and make way under her own power. How do visitors get down below, is there a non-tight access cut thru the deck, or is she still water tight?
