Steamship Virginia V Shipyard Vlog 1: Arrival

The 1922 Steamship Virginia V is heading into the shipyard for her 2025 haul out! In this video, the ship arrives at the shipyard and is lifted up to get ready for work to begin. Keep following the channel to see what kind of work it takes to keep a 103 year old wooden steamship running.

Lovely old ship! I'm a long-time follower of the Tally-Ho project, restoring that nice old yacht. I just saw this channel in my recommendations today - subbed!

You in Salt water

The ship spends most of her time in the fresh water of Lake Union and Lake Washington, but we are always trying to increase her time in salt water
