The USS Clamagore (SS 343), the last Guppy III submarine, is destined to become a reef off of the Florida coast.


Clamagore, still serving as part of the Patriots Point museum in Mount Pleasant, SC, needs a multi-million dollar overhaul. Unfortunately, neither the museum, nor the state of South Carolina has the money to fund the refurbishment.


And, if we, the past and present submariners of the world don't save Clamagore, she will be towed out to sea and reefed.


The USS Clamagore Veterans Association has established this website to help raise enough money to keep Clamagore out of the smelter's pot.


Here's how you can help. Click the yellow button above and donate $2.00. That's right, just 2 dollars. We're counting on the tens of millions of current and former submariners all over the world to save the Clamagore - 2 dollars at a time.


You may also send your donation by check or money order to - Save The Clamagore c/o George Bass, 110 River Birch Drive, Salisbury, NC 28146


Donations to the Save The Clamagore fund, under the umbrella of the Clamagore Veterans Association (a 501(c) tax exempt non profit), are fully deductable. Your thank you note will include all of the pertinent tax information.


And please, pass this site on to all of your shipmates, friends, relatives and anyone else who might be interested in helping.
