Mobile's Gulf Quest Maritime Museum

I like to poke fun at Mobile's new Gulf Quest Maritime Museum and its nearly empty parking lot every time I go by because of the high traffic prediction for such a uninteresting narrow subject museum that Taxpayer money helped to build. Apparently I am not the only one with suspicions that the expensive Gulf Quest Museum will lose money. 

Here is a sign on a last weeks Comic Cowboy Mardi Gras float in the below photo. Maybe the Gulf Quest Museum facility can be turned into a decent store, ice skating rink or casino after it fails, facilities which downtown Mobile lacks and apparently the public wants. 

I like boats and ships but Gulf Quest Maritime Museum will NEVER see a dime of my money because the Maritime industry just does not interest me. Especially when Maritime industries like the Alabama State Port Authority are contributing to the pollution of Mobile Bay by ignoring the trash on their shorelines.
