The War Memorial is responsible for her upkeep and they are a good group of folks keeping the boat "afloat". Despite the city, the Memorial is pursuing other avenues for volunteer labor and funding. Rick is in charge of the place, at the moment, and is an employee of the city. He's up against a lot and told us about some of the hurdles at yesterday's meeting.
In other news, some company wants to build a full working scale model of the C.S.S. Hunley and then donate her to the Muskogee War Memorial. I don't know how serious anyone is about this, but I think it would attract a lot of visitors from far and wide, if they knew that we had Hunley II.
