I seem to recall reading somewhere that the public could tour a
decommissioned sub in either Boston or Baltimore. The Navy web sites
aren't
much help with this sort of thing. Anyone got any info on such things?


Another Sub that's open for tours is the USS Growler at the Intrepid
Museum in New York. It's located in Manhattan on Pier 86. The website
says it's the only intact strategic nuclear missile submarine open to
the public anywhere in the world. I was at the Intrepid museum last
year, checking out the Intrepid aircraft carrier, but I didn't have
time to tour the sub. We were on our way to the Auto Show, and the
line to get onto the sub was too big. I may get a chance to check it
out next week. If so, I'll let you know what I thought of it.

Yes - please let me know how it is, particularly the crowd issue. I'm
leaning toward Fall River MA because it's near Boston, my final destination.
And, Manhattan is such a friggin' production......
