Description:
World War II veteran battleship moored to Eagle's Island in Wilmington NC as a memorial. In the lower left hand corner is the harbor taxi "Bizzy Bee" that goes between the battleship and locations along the Wilmington waterfront. On the right side you see where construction equipment is being stagged to begin construction of a permanent cofferdam around the battleship to help preserve her and facilitate maintenance on her hull. The cofferdam will be open as walkway when done and should make some great pictures possible.
