We tried to visit the old Research Center the other day but it was too rough to land. Today it is calm. The Marine Research Center lost it funding from the US Congress and was abandoned back in 2012. The current owners are planning on restoring it. There are worker's there during the week, working on building maintenance.

Research Center Dock, seen better days

Most of the buildings are in fair condition

Old Computers, rusting away

The old runway, with encroaching trees and vegetation

Research aquariums sitting where they were abandoned
