Candidate ships for future preservation?
An idea for a thread, to list and find old ships, still working/are around but not yet recognized as worth preserving. This was an idea inspired by the Hellenic navy's aging fleet, that includes some support ships, like tugs, from the 1940s.

Agioi Anargiri is a "Perama" or type of large caïque, that was restored for cruising. She was built in 1940.

Ankachak (YTB-501), later (YTM-767).
Transferred to the Greek Navy under lease arrangements, renamed HS Aias (A412)
Struck from the US Naval Register in December 1977 and sold to Greece
Navsource lists her as 'fate unknown'
Well, now we know, thanks
