Summary
[edit].jpg&action=edit§ion=1){kind=link}
| Description |
This used to be a parking lot for the "reserve" fleet of ships that might be needed in case of war. It started after WWll, and as older ships were removed and scrapped, new ones were added after the Korean and Vietnam wars. Finally the population is going down - but it is now much more expensive to clean these ships of all their toxic elements before they can be scrapped. |
