No reason this shouldn’t be an east coast version of the queen mary.

To be fair, the Queen Mary isn't commercially viable. I'm all for the preservation of nautical history, but we shouldn't go into it with the expectation that all preservable ships should be profit centers.

While I understand Queen Mary isn't the most profitable, it still baffles me that we (country) are the caretakers of a British passanger ship turndd museum but seemingly refuse to help the very namesake of our country which arguably would be more important holding the blue ribbon.

They were going to try and do something like that already but the ship is in such a bad state, it would cost too much to rehab so plans fell through
