You would need about another 2 million to put it right.
To get it out of the dock they have to take the bridge and funnel off also the side paddle wheels as the road bridge over the dock is to low the and the swing bridge is not wide enough.
Also needs a new hull on so it as to go in a dry dock.

Lincoln Castle is high and dry in this photo taken on January 4th 2008 by David Ornsby. Everything was deliberate - and even the shingle was purposely filled into the corner of Alexandra Dock so that the paddler could be "run aground" for attention to her hull. She has been out of action for the public for over 3 years.
