Yes but it's not the right ship or class.

Now we're talking. Right class but wrong ship.

Bingo. You can still see part of the bridge at lands end in SF.

Well! it was a 'cross post' shot-in-the -dark 'cause it's 'Minnesota Nice! but when I saw you'd won,
I simply deleted it. Is your ship famous?

Man Aktung, I thought you'd pick up on it pretty fast given our location but there's only a small bit of ship to sort.

I can't make up my mind if I'm seeing a second battery turret or not, so, is this a passenger ferry?

CA-38 San Francisco was built at Mare Island and earned 17 battle stars.

Not particularly as far as I'm aware.
