Congressman Brian Babin whose district includes the berth for BB-35 raises some concerns about moving the aging ship. Possibly build a dry dock on site instead.

I hope a lot of cruise ships don't end up in scrap yards soon. Susan & I love cruises and we have two booked for later this year, but I think today's FEAR will keep the cruise lines in a rough place for many years. I hate to see people living in FEAR.
