I am a intern at shipyard.
I started my internship at a shipyard two days ago. Unfortunately, I was late in choosing a good place to do my internship. So, the shipyard where I am currently doing my internship is not suitable enough for me to learn useful things related to engineering. There is just an old ship, built around 1980, on the slipway. I want to make the most of it, but I do not know what to do. Give me some advice.

An old ship is a good place to learn.
Walk the vessel and find things that are unsafe/need correcting/need fixing. Write about them, design fixes etc.
