A ship is a ship. Yes she is of historical significance but so was the the thousands
the only historical or nostaligcal significance is that some posh kids had there first sexual encounter
on it- whilst on posh kids holidaysThings fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere***
The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity.

Listen, you chippy hedgedweller,
It would have been little short of a miracle for anyone to get their end away on a cramped 50-foot ship with 23 other souls on board.Only the crew had "private" sleeping quarters.Apart from that, it was open to anyone, regardless of postcode or Daddy's job or accent, to get a berth onboard. Asgard II's replacement will be the same, whereas "Creidne" will be less accessible and will be mobbed by NS/NSR types
regards
GttC

Just look at the gold find off that spanish galleon a couple of years back. The salvage crew were detained by Spanish authorities because any property on a military ship remains the property of the State its from. Well thats my understanding of it.
The marine salvage laws are about as deep as the Mariana Trench!"The Question is not: how far you will take this? The Question is do you possess the constitution to go as far as is needed?"

For just over 3.6million euro you could have this

And as for your comment about posh kids. Withdraw it, or i will reveal your secret.
The clock is ticking.
Catch-22 says they have a right to do anything we can't stop them from doing.

and I was all set to raid daddy's savings and have me a nice new boat (just for you hedgie)Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent.
Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent.
Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil?
Is he neither able nor willing? Then why call him God?

The following is from Coiste an Asgard:
While "Asgard II" is owned by the State and the Minister for Defence is its registered owner, it is not a Naval Service vessel. It is managed by Coiste an Asgard, the committee first formed in 1968 which is now a company limited by guarantee. The Chairman of the company is the Minister for Defence and most of the other directors are experienced yachts people with a keen interest in sail training. Coiste an Asgard is also a founding member of Sail Training International, the body which regulates sail training throughout the world.
She's NOT a military vessel.
