Does this prevent them from entering Shackleton's cabin? With the amazing condition this ship has remained in, I wonder what interesting things they would find in there.
- kitd 5y agoIIRC all the interesting stuff had been removed from the ship already before it went down. But yes, a peek around inside would be interesting anyway.
- EdwardDiego 5y agoI dunno, I know that people have been preserving relics from polar expedition huts, Scott's and Shackleton's for example. (You can even buy a whisky based on the whisky they found stashed at Shackleton's Hut): https://nzaht.org/shackletons-whisky/ https://nzaht.org/shackletons-whisky/
