Fire Fighting Vasa style
Today we visited the museum and my husband was able to help out by solving a carpentry mystery for the research team. Thanks to Fred and his team for their interest and for being so welcoming.
We have a question that has annoyed us since we left the museum and someone might be able to clear it up. We read that the scuppers were plugged to keep water on the deck, to help thwart fire - was this on all decks and what was the evidence that lead to the comment?
