Battleship New Jersey Dry Dock Tour - 4K Video

For over a month, The Battleship New Jersey has been going through a massive renovation, below the water line.
It was back on March 21st when the USS New Jersey was pulled via tug boats down the Delaware river to find her way to the Philadelphia Navy Yard.
Since then, crews at the North Atlantic Ship Repair have been working seven days a week to get her under-side looking brand new again.
This two month project is accomplishing a few different projects and one additional add-on.
The primary goals of this dry-docking are to restore the ship's bottom by removing all paint, inspecting all 165 underwater through-hull openings, applying new antifouling paint, and replacing the 1,200 zinc anodes with 600 aluminum ones.
At the time of recording they look to be more than halfway done with the project.

Are any of the guns on the ship still active? I've been to the USS Alabama, it's not bad for something that old and small. In it's day, they were definitely fearsome weapons.

Toured this ship when it was Camden with my brothers and grandfather who has passed since. He was a former Vietnam vet and you could see the joy it brought him being able to give his grandkids a tour of something that is so important to him and his legacy. So great to see it again in your videos Joey thank you for the video!

[@Adam.NavyVet]

She is absolutely beautiful. The Iowa Class Battle Ship has amazing lines. Her hull shape is a thing of beauty and we no longer have the ability to source the steel sheets, loft, manufacture, shape and hull of this thickness. They had to manufacture the jigs that were used to put those curves and radius bends in steel up to 11 1/2 “ thick plate steel for Iowa/Jersey and 14 1/2” inches thick for Wisconsin/Missouri armor belts. Imaging what it took to roll and complex shape steel plates of this thickness. They used FHA Steel (Face Hardened Armor grade steel. Also referred to as Cement Steel. It was expensive to mill and roll. Lofting and then taking the flat raw plate steel sheet and shaping all the correct contours and bends was a skill long lost. But seeing her with her shirt down is just incredible. Thank you for your video work and tour of her underbody. I was part of the Reactivation Team when she was in Long Beach Naval Shipyard in 81/82. What an amazing Ship she is. Looks brand new now.

[@topturretgunner]

Adam. Thank you so much for sharing this with us. Many do not know or understand the complexities of designing much less building the Iowa class BB’s. Then try to explain just how much of the initial design process was accomplished with a thing called a slide rule. Don’t even try to explain the function of the old analog fire control computers for the main batteries. Amazing stuff. Fair winds and following seas brother. Vietnam era Aviation Ordinanceman here.

That would be amazing, but unfortunately ships can’t really stay in this position or it will cause significant damage to her structure.

[@topturretgunner]

I understand your sentiments and yes it most certainly would indeed simplify maintenance but that to me would be like caging a wild Eagle never to fly again. The same as the USAF totally restoring the famous WWII B-17 Memphis Belle and she will never fly again. But again I totally understand the reasoning behind it.

[@garbo8962]

Joey " Ambassador to the Wildwoods " great to see you over 75 miles from home. You & the New Jersey curator ( Ryan S ) are my favorite u tube producers. Glad to hear they have most of the $10 million needed for this overdue dry docking work. Have been on the Olympia twice where is across the river from the New Jerseys Camden berth location. Can remember when they towed the ship from the west coast thru the Panama Canal back in 1999. No country will ever build a big ship that is run off steam supplied by high pressure boilers. Last big ship that ran off boilers was built back in the 1950's. Ryan mentioned that somebody messed up years ago when they painted a lot of the anode steel mounting studs with paint that insulated the anode from the ships steel plates.

[@WildwoodVideoArchive]

Thank you for saying that and yes Ryan is the best!!! I had the honor to interview him back in March.

Thank you good sir for this video, as an avid follower of the Battleship New Jersey channel and Ryan's awesome coverage of the whole process throughout, as well as all the channels video's to date, this was a very much welcome addition. Can't agree more thoroughly with you, with how good she's looking after all the works to date, and how good she will look once all is said and done....and wow....the new deck is stunning, bringing her back to a state of beauty only the IOWA's possessed. As a plastic scale modeller of predominantly ships, the information and footage is priceless for the details around various parts of the ship, that we just cannot access anywhere else...so for that alone, thank you greatly. I would kill to be be able to attend one of the dry dock tours...but as I'm in Australia, tis a tad on the difficult side...so I'm very thankful for this video and am certainly looking forward to the mentioned 360 deg video, should be awesome (not to mention all the great videos from the Battleship New Jersey channel itself). Have sub'd, and will have a look at all your channel offerings, and look forward to further work of yours, great footage, very informative content and extremely well delivered, a true credit good sir.

I'm usually never one to point out errors, they happen, and I ignored the 1st one, then the 2nd, but just had to mention it by the 3rd+... They are "anodes" not 'anoids" lol Minor thing I know 🙂

[@plymouthnnf]

10:15 would of been nice if you mentioned "Cathodic Protection" 11:35 those blank plates, those hooks, you attach chain blocks to lower / raise those blanks with lifting ops, not rope... plates probably weight in about 2-300kg so good luck hold that in place. 12:47 if distorted is mainly due to rough weather and are frequently reshaped or replaced.

The Anodes are actually Zinc... Nice vid..

[@Serps-ii9zc]

The old anodes they removed were Zinc, the new ones are Aluminum. They'll work better in the slightly brackish water the she sits in at her berth in Camden.

[@cocodog85]

if the engine is moth balled and the props are locked in place. then why not keep the ship in a permanent dry dock? a new dry dock maybe cheaper than constant maintenance.

[@sundance2005]

So what the "blanks" for? You explained how they attach and remove them, which I think a lot of us could figure out but nothing about what they are for or what that picture (it looked like a picture) in the center. Was hopping to see more of the inside.

[@rickeys]

The space between the keels is called "The Holland Tunnel". Truth.

[@Za7a7aZ]

What I would like to know is how they managed to lower the ship this precise on these blocks of concrete. What are these anodes for...how does it work?

[@captaingordon]

Would the operation of the ship have equal power to all 4 shafts, or would economy procedures call for more power to the inboard or outboard engines? It looks like less wear to have the inboards operate harder as they have more structural support than the outboard shafts.

[@patricksottek5913]

Seems like there is a bigger reason for this being preserved liked this. Perhaps to keep it in condition for reactivation.

[@corvanha1]

[@markdoldon8852]

The ANODES are zinc, not aluminum. If they were aluminum the steels hull would become the sacrificial metal, rotting away in months

[@Serps-ii9zc]

Anodes can be different material depending on the type of water the ship is in. The ones they removed were zinc, because when the Navy mothballed it it was in salt water in Bremerton. The new Anodes ARE aluminum, because the river water in Camden is mostly fresh, brackish water.

She should be refitted for guided cruse missels. She still one of the fastest ships.

It would be faster and cheaper to build a new guided missile ship than to refit one of these. Not to mention it takes a crew the size of what's on a small carrier to run one, and there isn't anyone in the active Navy today that would even know how to run it's machinery.

[@transmaster]

what do they use inplace of the red, and gray lead paint I used of paint on USN ships back in the early 1970;'s.

[@joedoakes8307]

how thick is the steel plate on the hull ? WHY do one set of propellers have 5 blades and the other 4 blades ? is the steel plate below the water line the same thicknesses throughout ? how thick is the steel plate ABOVE the water line ?

[@hottubking1229]

Nice looking anoids, am I right?

[@leroycharles9751]

Was it cheaper/easier just to leave the propellers on it instead of removing them when they first made it a museum or were they hedging their bets on maybe putting it back in service? I know the Pompanito and Texas had them removed.

[@Serps-ii9zc]

When the Navy mothballed it they were left on for potential reactivation. It hasn't been dry docked since then, so they're still there. All 4 Iowas still have their props. They aren't being removed because there's really no reason to. There's a good video on the Battleship New Jersey KZbin channel about it.

Retired from a high rise building with a clear view of the planes arriving at busy Philly airport. While sitting in one of the corner break rooms noticed that every 3 to 4 minutes a large passenget jet would be traveling from the North to land st the airport. Planes from the South are not allowed to fly over crowded Philly so they have to make long u turn and desending over New Jersey. So it would be dangerous & possibly not legal to fly a drone close to plane glide slope approach.

[@WildwoodVideoArchive]

It is illegal to fly a drone within the confines of the navy yard. The FAA will not honor any waiver for this area unless it’s indoor flight. Also keep in mind that it is a working shipyard and houses a mothball fleet That also makes it a no flying zone
