    The Port Weller Rep stated that the AthaB, and I would surmise the Iriquois and Algonquin would be included,
    are in very poor condition which accounted for the extra $5 mil in the refit quote. Since I'm not involved with ships at all I'd like to know where on the ship this extra work would take place. Since these ships are 40 years old I would guess it would be mostly down in the "guts" somewhere. Any info?
