Keep in mind that the higher you bid, the more we raise to keep this beautiful ship shipshape and our programs running strong. This means it’s OK to bid higher than the market value!
All in-person experiences are Covid-permitting and will be extended as necessary, so don’t worry about the expiration date. You can bid with confidence.
