Since then, (DECOMMISIONED 1922) the ship has hosted visitors who wanted to walk the weathered boards of its deck or see the steam engines that made its speed possible. The Flagship Olympia Foundation is trying to raise the money necessary to dry dock and overhaul the ship. It's already been on the water since 1892, and could have decades more in it after repairs.
