We finally have CEO Jonathan Williams back in the house, so we corralled him for a wrap up of this year’s Historic Naval Ships Association (HNSA) conference.

The theme was hull maintenance, a crucial part of operating a historic vessel as a museum, and in this podcast episode, we talk about the future of the industry with regard to preserving ships that were never intended to last as long as they have.

We referenced a video COO Mike Getscher and his team put together for the conference. You can find it here:
