How true that could have been...

“Admiral Grumsky to prepare popcorn”

That sounds familiar.

Lake George NY is home to an odd ship called a Radeau.
Funny looking thing too.

A square bow, that must have cut through the water like a block of cheese through a block of cheese

Specifically it was named The Land Tortoise.
And it is a Radeau.
It is an underwater exhibit.
And they apparently have no plans to do a Vasa or Mary Rose with it.

Well, nobody was in such a hurry to get places like they are now.

” a block of cheese through a block of cheese”

Yes, radeau had terrible handling.
The Land Tortoise was apparently meant to be a kind of floating battery.

Just something that floated and had guns on it, I see.

Plan view I saw on the website shows that it had two masts but no bowsprit.
Odd looking thing too.
Best to Google it using “radeau the land tortoise.”
It has a NY state park website.
