They're floating museum pieces.


In your dreams, landlubber! Just a couple of examples for you.....

The USS Constitution, homeported at Boston, is a commissioned US Navy ship (in
fact the flagship of the US Navy) with a full active duty crew of sailors. Not
a museum (the museum is across the street from her berth).

The USCG Barque Eagle, homeported at the Coast Guard Academy in Connecticutt, is
a working training ship, used in training future seagoing officers.
