AGENDA ITEM WORDING:
Approval to pay Paul Lin and Associates for a stability analysis completed on the Spiegel Grove after premature
sinking in May and later righting
ITEM BACKGROUND:
Permits were issued for the sinking of the U.S.S. Spiegel Grove as an artificial reef off Key Largo by ACOE an
by NOAA. A stability analysis was required for the proposed location and position of the ship at the permitted
artificial reef location. When the Spiegel Grove sank prematurely and ultimately was laid on its side, it lay at a
different angle than proposed and on its starboard side not upright. NOAA and the USCG required that a new
stability analysis be completed in order to validate stability in the ship's actual final position and orientation.
The firm of Paul Lin and Associates provided a quote for the job as the marine engineer that had completed the
first stability analysis. The cost of the stability analysis was $4,000. Funds will be provided using the Boating
Improvement Funs.
