Not mine, I haven't seen it. It may have some historic value, and is free. I think this group is the best way to find it a new home. I will go look at it or facilitate it's rescue if I can. I live in the same county and township.

The Webb Institute is in Glen Cove. 4 year private Naval Architecture / Marine Engineering college that has a woodshop. May be a good project for interested students. For consideration.

I contacted the owner, Carman's River Maritime Center. Mystic already has one, I suggested Long Island Maritime Museum.
