I've got potential help

So I talked to my grandpa who is in real estate about the SS United States and told him about the New York Coalition to Save the SS United and how they're trying to save the ship. When I told him that the ship was Mobile, Alabama, he said that since the ship is apart of American history that it needs to be preserved and restored, going as far as saying that the cost to restore the ship wouldn't be that expensive and that it'd be worth it, he also said that he would make a call to the Alabama Historical Society and see if he can get them to step in and try to save the ship.
