Hms Victory
Has anyone been to see the HMS Victory lately, have artefacts and parts of the ship been broken off and taken?
by tourists?
She's in fine shape.
Many of the cannons have been replaced by replicas (they are very heavy in an old ship). Nothing seems to be damaged or stolen. Nothing is broken off!
She's well worth visiting. In fact the whole Historic Dockyard is a treasure house of naval history. You can buy a ticket to all the attractions. You can visit them over the course of a year.

Fifth Victory Wreck Found
Latest News-
Recently there has been great interest in the remains of the wreck which has been found by Odyessy Marine Exploration and which is believed to be a ship called Victory. The Victory which has been discovered is thought to be the 5th ship to bear this name in the Royal Navy and is classified as a 1st rate 100 gun 3 decked ship of the line.
HMS Victory currently in dry dock in Portsmouth is the sixth ship with this name and was built some 15 years after the previous one sank.
The fifth ship, which was sunk in 1744, was built at Portsmouth commencing in 1726. In fact this particular ship was in some respects a rebuild using timbers taken out of a previous warship called the Victory [fourth] which had been accidentally badly damaged by fire. Although carrying 100 guns the fifth Victory is marginally smaller than her successor - the Victory you can visit today.
Due to the tragic circumstances of the loss of the Victory with all hands there was some concern about giving the new ship the same name. The choice was eventually influenced by Britain's successes against her enemies in 1759. This year became known as the annus mirabilis or 'marvellous year' so it was decided that this was the correct name to choose.
HMS Victory has now been in commission for over 200 years and is the oldest commissioned warship in the world. It will be interesting to see what new information will come from the recent discovery about the tragic fifth Victory.

Wow! I missed this news till it showed up in a related link on one of my blogs for a new painted version of the HMS Victory model, the sister ship to this shipwreck.
I have a great intrest in shipwrecks ever since my father & I were involved in a treasure salvage operation in the Florida Keys back in 1979. We spent 2 weeks searching & blowing holes with a hydraulic lift right next to Mel Fishers site for the Nuestra Senora de Atocha.
We belived that Mel had not found the Plate Room (the Treasure Room located at the bottom of the ship) of the Atocha. The theory was that this mass of treasure was so heavy that it fell out of the bottom of the ship as it went over the reef and the ship continued onward many miles before coming to rest.
It was pretty exciting stuff! Everyone in the crew was pumped up just waiting for those 1st gold bars to come shooting out of the lifts exhaust!
But we ran out of time and the Hydraulic Lift crew had to move on to the more lucrative business of installing pilings in Manhatten.
I will always remember that treasure hunters rush though…
