The British-built boat that co-starred with Humphrey Bogart and Katharine Hepburn in 1951 film The African Queen is to be restored and will sail again.
Owner Jim Hendricks, referring to the boat's whistle, told the Key West Citizen it would mean "giving the Queen her voice back".
Mr Hendricks' late father bought the Queen in 1982 for $65,000 (£41,300).
The boat is in a state of disrepair after sitting in a dry dock next to the Key Largo Holiday Inn for 10 years.
