I live in central MASS and it's an honor to have her anchored in our state. I've toured the ship several times and it never ceases to amaze me with her beauty. Boston rocks!

Had a tour when I was in grade school. Such an amazing piece of history.

My mom toured the Constitution when she was in Monterey Bay, CA, on a world fund-raising cruise in 1933...imagine being part of that crew! I finally checked her off my bucket list just after her refit in 2017, and we got to talk to crew members who assured us that they were the envy of the entire US Navy.

I was 11 years old 1962 when I and the family from California, toured the ship. Wooden ships are a work of art.

HIPPIE CHICKEN, my husband is a Navy vet,disabled, and we were lucky enough to stay at the Constitution Hotel. I think that is what its called, on the harbor!

My Dad was from Boston Mass I still have cousins that live there and I love to visit and see the sites. Plymouth Rock is so cool. I also remember visiting this ship. I miss the east.

"The only active American ship to have sunk an enemy vessel" Wow. I had to think about that for a minute.

HIPPIE CHICKEN, I got to see her there too, Boston is one of my favorite cities on the east coast!
Nutshell
And despite all of those canonballs bouncing off of her... they weren't so cocky about it that they sailed her into an iceberg.
(I know, I know, the Titanic had a double hull & the various isolated chambers but still... it just seems like some intelligence was lost, even as progress was made.)
