I thank the gentleman for yielding. I'll be very brief. Mr. Speaker, relative to the Coast Guard's issues, their principal issue is the boilers. We all know that. We've always known that. The new owners are going to replace the boilers. The Coast Guard has to approve this. If the Coast Guard has any opposition, all they have to do is not issue the certificate to operate the boat, and it won't operate. So the Coast Guard has to be completely satisfied before it safely goes out. Relative to sprinklers, it has a state-of-the-art sprinkler system. So the safety issues, I think, are red herrings really.
