While only 104 years old, the USS Texas still floats. It looks like this boat is permanently dry docked.

Texas has sprung a lot of leaks over the years and has almost sunk a couple of times. I would guess that it will probably end up like the Mikasa eventually. It would sure make the upkeep a lot easier (I would think, but I’m no expert).
