The USS Freedom was in port for a few days and open to the public. The Freedom is a Littoral Combat Ship (LCS) loaded with remote-control craft including a helicopter, small boat, and a submersible. Only 40 people crew the ship which is capable of cruising at least 46 knots per hour. Jet propelled, it can sail in waters as shallow as 12 feet!
