Rick, if you're thinking about selling it, think about selling it to the
Virginia
Science Museum.   The Aluminaut is here, and I'm wrokign to connect
the Simon Lake research project to this Science Museum.   Another 
boat would be welcomed, if I can nudge these folks.

I tried to volunteer to work on the Aluminaut, bringing it back to a
neater, less dusty, more seaworthy appearance, but the Museum
turned me down.
