key West is also short over a million bucks on the costs required to sink it and it trying to get money from the state.
So unless the shipyard bill is settled soon and they cough up an additional million or so bucks, I doubt you'll see it sunk this year.
They've been trying to sink that boat since about 2002.

Well, that sucks! I'll probably go somewhere else then. I've been to the keys the last 2 years, but I'll skip a year (or 2) if this is the case.

I hate that for you. The keys are a great place to dive. But get your AOW & go to the Flower Gardens. It's the best bang for your buck in this part of the country. But book the 3 day trip to get your money's worth.
