Year: 2007 Language: english Author: Steve Gansen (Editor) Genre: History Publisher: Zenith Press Format: PDF Quality: eBook Pages count: 132 Description: It was a beautiful spring day on April 21, 2001, as the USS Iowa (BB-61) was being towed through San Francisco Bay up to San Pablo Bay toward its anchorage in Suisun Bay, California. Hundreds of military, commercial, and pleasure ships make their way through this channel and up the American River every year, but this was a special ship. It was the flagship of the last active battleship class, and it had just traveled nearly six thousand miles over a period of forty-four days from Newport, Rhode Island, to its new home in the Suisun Bay Reserve Fleet. Thousands of well-wishers lined the shores of the San Francisco Bay Area route, as the huge, 887-foot-long, 58,000-ton ship moved by at six knots under tow by the oceangoing tug Sea Victory.
