Having been to Cobia and met with Tim one of the volunteers this is actually quite a successful scheme they have and it raises a lot of money for the museum.
Bet Menno and Drebbel are included in that price.

I would, if got paid that do that. Never the less, I think Subsim members should have a discount!

Bah, while the Cobia is a nice boat, you coulda slept on a PT-Boat with alchohol and watched PT-Boat movies.

If I win the Powerball I'm buying/building a replica PT-Boat. I'll mount a kickass sound system on it and bomb around Narraganset bay blasting the theme song from McHales Navy.

The USS Pampanito (SS-383), moored at the San Francidco Maritime Museum, has long had a similar sleepover program, primarily for youth oriented organizations:
USS Pampanito Overnight Program --

BTW, the Pampanito was used in the 1996 movie Down Periscope, where all the exterior, and many interior, scenes were filmed...
