Restoration

Engine room :: Wheelhouse :: On deck :: Hull :: Other :: Volunteering

The first restoration task in the Wheelhouse was reinstallation of the telegraphs that had been removed by FDNY for fear the Harvey would end up in the scrap yard. Once the department learned she was headed for museum status, the telegraphs were returned to be reinstalled by the owners.
