Explanation(This amendment provides $250,000 from the general fund in the second year to the Virginia Maritime Heritage Foundation for the construction of the Schooner Virginia, a wooden "Class B" tall ship. This ship is designed to be a replica of the original Virginia, which was the last of the wooden pilot schooners that began service in 1917. The foundation has raised $2.0 million to date for the construction, and will raise another $1 million to support the ship's annual operating costs.)
