Things to do in Corpus Christi: USS Lexington Museum Breakdown & Review
มุมมอง 64K3 ปีที่แล้ว
A breakdown of what to expect when visiting the USS Lexington Museum in Corpus Christi Texas. Correction: the engine on the hanger deck is a Jet engine and not a rocket engine, I misspoke in the voice over. I get it ;) USS Lexington Web Site: usslexington.com Visit Corpus Christi: www.visitcorpuschristitx.org/
3 mins telling us you had a problem. 3 seconds telling us how to fix. Knock it off lol
Great lesson, thank you!
Good Job! It is for winterization, and I actually work for Rockwood/Flagstaff.
Yea I knew it had that function, what was weirder is that it worked perfectly the first time and on the second trip without my moving it, it didn’t and had to be adjusted.
Thank you for your very thorough & detailed review. I just purchased a 2024 epro 19bh, upgraded from a 15tb. I'm looking forward to more space.
I had a problem with the kitchen sink spurting. Following you advice I tracked down the water pump. There weren't any valves in the area, but I accidentally found the problem. My shower has a recirculation valve to keep the hot water hot when the shower head is off. It turns out that valve has to be off when running the on-board potable water system for the sink to flow properly. It didn't make a difference when hooked up to shore water.
My favorite characters are Red and Orange
Orange is 100% my favorite!
@@TheWanderingMantis w
He is explaining nothing😢
Green is my favorite character
@@veec2977 orange all the way 😜
My pump was doing the same and couldn’t figure things out. The switch you opened is under my trailer by the tank. Thank you! (2023 Rockwood A122s model)
Our first TT had the East to West bed and a year later we traded in for North to South bed. The East to west got old quickly. Yet we had a BH and I was OK sleeping in the bottom bunk. But wife regardless wanted a larger TT and caught this bug called Happy Wife lol; so we went with a Grand Design. 22mle. Yet I’m a fan of the Geo Pro’s/E Pros’s and Surveyor’s and Flag Staff Mini Lite from Forest River. We are watching because she is listening now and is considered downsizing … Yet so much compromise; example that 3 burner cook top in a small TT .. crazy when they make a two Burner that will do the Job and give you more counter top ; but the one thing we cannot do without is a 12V compressor fridge. All our TT’s have a had it and we won’t do without. Nothing better then able to load up your fridge get up to temp at your loading site and take the road and fridge keeps everything at operating safe temps.
Do you know how to reset it back to default setting?
@@mtbowhunter no buddy, wish I did
Your video helped me thank you!
I’m so glad you got it fixed!
Such an easy fix. I don’t know why I didn’t think of this. I’m an idiot. 😂😂
Hey I didn’t either, which is why I made this!
What a fucking waste of 3 mins jesus christ
Great channel!!
May 22 2024. Great fix for first time trailer owner thanks worked great
Very helpful. Thanks. 5/24
Aww I wish you where still making videos, just wander bye from Scotland 🏴 UK, hope your wanderings have taken you many places in this life fellow traveler ❤🌎
Yea this whole situation put a serious damper on my life and is still shadowing me, I appreciate the support and hopefully sooner than later I will pick it back up again.
The only one available.
Thanks!
Thank you so much. My dad was a pilot onboard since the shakedown cruise. It was an emotional experience to visit the Lex in 2002.
I’m glad you got to see it again!
I served on the ShangriLa and it was the most miserable time in my life
Oh no!
Miss that ship. I served on her as an OS. I was one of the first females. Great ship.
Thank you so much!!!❤
No problem 😊 I'm glad I could have helped!
I was in Admin in 71…..did the Plan of the Day and ran it up to Captain Davis on the bridge when we were underway.
I changed out my water pump. And now I have continuous air in the lines. I thought maybe it’s a vacuum leak somewhere but I have no idea how to find it. Any tips or tricks?
No I’m sorry I don’t have any recommendations for you.
Air! Use about 5-10 lbs of air with the water in the lines and you will be able to pinpoint the problem by listening for bubbles
Prime the pump with the faucets open until water runs without spitting
Hi what would cause the pipe to suck in ..? I have a sureflo pump connecting to normal hose pipes . But after a while the inlet pipe side sucks in , why ? Thanks
Sounds like the intake tube is blocked or restricted, causing a vacuum when the pump comes on. You could try blowing out the intake line in reverse direction to the normal flow.
4 minutes to find out.... lol
Man, sorry this happened to you! Were you ever able to get it fixed? It appeared you were battling an insurance company. You know the old saying; insurance is great UNLESS you need to use it!
So no the unit was not repaired by the shop and the insurance company has abandoned me so long story short I am currently in lawsuit with the companies involved and while it is going on I cannot speak on it.
@@TheWanderingMantis That really sucks! I know of TH-camrs "Adventure Bandits" who suffered a similar fate (their unit was totaled) with their RV over a year ago and their insurance company came through and they had a new replacement in a matter of weeks (they have over 35K subscribers so maybe that was a factor). I hope you are suing them for big bucks and when you win, blast the shady insurance company over the internet so that others will know of their shady practices. I hope you get some resolution soon!
Thanks for the vid. Eyeing one of these for my family.
I live about a 2-hour drive away from Corpus Christi, so I've visited the Lexington a few times and also recommend her to anybody visiting the area, particularly if they are history buffs. You can easily spend 3-4 hours if you stop to read a lot of the posted information, but even an hour aboard is enough time to make it enjoyable. I don't know if they were offered at the time you posted this video, but they now offer a special guided "hard hat" tour that takes you into parts of the ship that are not included in the regular self-guided tours. I have not been on the "hard hat" tour on the Lex, but did do the "hard hat" tour on the Battleship Texas several years ago. It was very well worth the price. If the "hard hat" tour on the Lex is as good, I would highly recommend it for folks who have the extra time and can afford the fee. I think it's only offered during cooler weather months, as it may go into areas of the ship that are not air conditioned, where it would be unbearably hot during the summer. At least that's the way it worked with the Battleship Texas.
I don’t think that was a thing when I went but it sounds like a must do for hardcore history fans!
It works. Yur the man
Bro that not cheap lol
For Vegas per hour entertainment, that’s cheap 😜
Are the outside walls made with azdel on both sides
I was in the main control engine room. Where the mannequin stood was my post. 82-86 on the lady Lex
Wow that’s awesome! I’m sure you did a better job than he did 😉
It closes way too early for a gaming center.
You’re probably right!? It should be Open late.
Nevada not Nevoda. Thanks for the video. Definitely going
As I mentioned before that’s a Texas thing, no disrespect to the state we just talk funny
You’re mispronouncing Nevada
I’m from Texas, we sound funny what can I say.
Do they have Console games
So when I first went, I remember seeing Console games. However, when I did this video, which was sometime later, they did not.
Such a great review; we are a family of 5, and the 19BH is the one I'm set on for our new camper. The amount of of amenities in this class is amazing.
You will love it! I would still be using mine if a tornado hadn’t dropped a tree on it…🤦🏻♂️
Love the review. A lot of good components! 😂 🍻
Yeah, I have this thing where I get stuck on a word. I call it my word of the month.
Thank you!
Hope you enjoyed the video. Due to an unforeseen hiatus I have been out of it lately but I intend to crank up some videos here soon again!
Thanks mate I fixed it in ten seconds you’re a legend. 🥰
I’m glad you figured it out!
I’m so sorry this happened to you.
The saga still continues. I can’t really discuss it due to legal stuff but I still haven’t had this resolved.
Thank you for uploading! I am in Corpus Christi right now and we're literally docked just a few hundred meters away from USS Lexington but I can't go ashore as I do not have a visa. Thanks for giving us a tour via your video.
We were berthed just passed the bridge at 09:20
Thank you!
Is this place kid friendly? Looks awesome
Besides being in a casino I think mature video game age kids would have fun here. Not sure if there are actual age restrictions I didn’t ask.
Thank u... Turning on my pump helped clear the pipes
Is the bottom closed?
What do you mean?
@@TheWanderingMantis Tank heaters and closed in.
Thanks for the info. Very helpful. I checked all this but was not my issue. I found the connection to the water tank was lose. As well as the drain plug next to it. I purchased my RV used. Last owner tried putting putty around both connection. I removed all of it, pipe taped and tightened. Finally, problem solved.
