The Kidd is slated for dry dock soon for repairs around the hull and the existing dick it has used since the early 1980s.
that's how long I've been using my dick also, thankfully mine isn't in need of any repairs.

They couldn’t have done that while the river was down for months, exposing the whole hull?

The saddle it sits in when the river is low cannot be repaired with the ship there.

The Pinta is in Biloxi til April. It's amazing how small those ships were. The crew mostly slept on deck. Imagine getting on that ship and taking off for parts unknown.

There are no stereos or catalytic converters on this ship for NOLA trash to jack so vessel should be fine docked in the city for a night.

Just dock it with one of your buddies and he’ll take care of it.

Didn’t something like this happen about 20yrs ago and the damn thing sunk near Donaldsonville? I think I recall the city fighting with the company on whose responsibility it was to clear the wreckage. Only in Louisiana.

Going to need a few dead middle-age white guys hanging off the stern with their pockets emptied and some defective fentanyl patches on’em they got from Gaucho.

I remember going see either the Nina or the Pinta when I was a kid in Morgan City for a field trip. Even then I remember thinking holy crap this is small. The Nina was only 50 ft long.
