Doing some math (correct me if you know better)...
At $30/barrel times about 8 barrels per metric ton (varies) times about 4000 tons is just shy of a million dollars to fill'er-up.
Is the tank of the left side or the right I wonder?
How about a skeleton crew to keep it running? Say 20 trained crew at $50k/year equals another million a year (not counting benefits -- perhaps one of them is a doctor?).
Um, oaky. So let's say we keep it dockside then. I have no idea, but I wouldn't be surprised to pay $250-500k per year for dock space and services.
Personally, I'd park it near China Beach, blow torch a few walls to make some room and offer up cheap, secure, fireproof offices or apartments for the nautically inclined.
Put a mall and a food court in the aircraft hangar (don't forget the roller coaster) and throw a grid of solar cells on the deck.
If office space goes over $8/sqft again, we're set. Come on boom II...
