Maybe it's a "kick up the arse" from Peel Ports where she is docked, to those that want to preserve her. They need to pull their fingers out and "do something". Yes, it's a historic ship. But at the end of the day it's a clapped out frigate. Why not just preserve the wardroom table and the copy of the signal with it? If some want to keep it as a museum ship, then it's time to stump up.

I did visit her, Onyx and Bronington when they were open. Very interesting, and worth the money. But not in the same league as other museum ships/ship museums.
