In the several years that boat was keep at Glendale, the only time we saw it under way was for training.

Keeping that boat maintained and at the ready must have cost quite a bit each year so the "profit", if any, was probably not a lot.

Agree with FLL that the MP probably has some capability to respond as long as the lake is navigable.
