General Note
The Ancient Mariner was a refurbished U.S. Coast Guard cutter ship "Nemesis" anchored on the New River. Opened in 1981, the floating eatery was closed in 1986 by health officials as the source of a massive outbreak of infectious hepatitis. The ship was later sunk in 1991 to be an artificial reef.
