  • The many volunteers that maintain the Slater have brought her back from the near dead..although the cost of repairing her power plant for getting under way on her own

    is in the millions and prohibative. I am a former NAVY radioman 1967-1971.

    Thanks for taking a look

  • I served there from 1989 to 1991, was decommissioned. Ship was seaworthy

  • My grandpa was on that ship

    From the movie "Alice in the Navy" filmed onboard the USS Slater, then serving in Royal Greek Navy, under the name "Aetos" (Eagle) !
