A Walk Around The HMS Victory, Portsmouth, England
HMS Victory is a 104-gun first-rate ship of the line of the Royal Navy, ordered in 1758, laid down in 1759 and launched in 1765. She is best known as Lord Nelson's flagship at the Battle of Trafalgar in 1805.
She was also Keppel's flagship at Ushant, Howe's flagship at Cape Spartel and Jervis's flagship at Cape St Vincent. After 1824, she served as a harbour ship.
In 1922, she was moved to a dry dock at Portsmouth, England, and preserved as a museum ship. She has been the flagship of the First Sea Lord since October 2012 and is the world's oldest naval ship still in commission.
Listed as part of the National Historic Fleet, HMS Victory has been the flagship of the First Sea Lord since October 2012. Prior to this, she was the flagship of the Second Sea Lord. She is the oldest commissioned warship in the world[Note 1] and attracts around 350,000 visitors per year in her role as a museum ship. The current and 100th commanding officer is Lieutenant Commander Rod Strathern Royal Navy, who assumed command in September 2011.
HMS Victory, officially, has a surprisingly large crew complement, though visitors are unlikely to see any naval personnel. It is a legacy of naval legislation that all naval ratings and officers must be assigned to a ship (which may include a shore establishment – still regarded as Her Majesty's Ships by the navy). Any navy person allocated to work in a non-HMS location (such as the Ministry of Defence in London) is recorded as being a member of the crew of HMS Victory.

Full walk through tour of HMS Victory at the Portsmouth Historic Dockyard, January 2019.
HMS Victory is the main attraction at the Dockyard but there's plenty of superb other ones included in the 'Full Navy Ticket' which I bought. These include: HMS Warrior (1860), HMS M.33, various naval museums and a harbour boat tour.
It's only a few minutes walk from Portsmouth Harbour train station and easily one of the best attractions I've ever been to.

STORYLINE
Britain's Queen Elizabeth II carried out a review of an international fleet to mark the 200th anniversary of the Battle of Trafalgar.
In that battle, Britain's Admiral Horatio Nelson routed Napoleon Bonaparte's French and Spanish forces and ensured that the Royal Navy ruled the waves for more than a hundred years.
The ceremony was watched by thousands of spectators at the southern coast city of Portsmouth.
Festivities began with the Queen, in her role as Lord High Admiral of the United Kingdom, setting sail on the icebreaker HMS Endurance, accompanied by the Admiral of the Fleet, the Duke of Edinburgh.
35 nations contributed 58 vessels to the International Fleet Review, with 57 heads of foreign navies attending.
Also involved was a replica 18th-century frigate portraying the HMS Victory, the flagship that Nelson commanded and died aboard when a musket ball struck his spine during the famous sea battle.
The HMS Endurance then anchored and from its bridge the Queen and Prince Philip watched four war vessels steam past.
Eight tall ships then conducted a sail past, followed by about 300 private yachts, many from sailing clubs around Britain.
The Queen and Prince Philip then departed by royal helicopter for the HMS Invincible to give a reception for senior naval staff.
Celebrations will continue later on Tuesday with a mock sea battle involving ten tons of gunpowder and state-of-the-art pyrotechnics and a spectacular fireworks display.

HMS Victory,(renovated) Portsmout, UK
The HMS Victory is 80% through her refurbishment. Looking so new in parts takes away some of the mystique, but makes her look how she would have. The main mast are due to be re-fitted and when complete she will truly be a marvel. The weather was not too good so they had closed the main deck :(
