Loved going on the Tiger Cruises! Went on several on Big John as my dad was a Chief Petty Officer and served 26-years. Was on the Nassau after the JFK. Nothing like Big John! She should be a museum today for all to appreciate. It’s a shame what’s happening to her. Go Navy!
I was on the Kennedy from 2000-2004. We also did a tiger cruise from Pensacola, Florida, back home to Mayport. I tried to get my mother to come along, but she didn't like the concept of the steep ladders.
