I took a tour of the local docks and maritime museum. I ended up stepping on this private boat and meeting the owner. He gave me a great tour and explanation of the whole boat. He recently finished a 2 million dollar renovation, beautiful boat.

This is an active veteran run navy ship. I ended up stumbling into the engine room and I met the engineer that still runs the steam driven turbines that run the ship. He gave me a pretty thorough tour of the engine room and an awesome explanation of how everything on the ship is powered.
