Regarding doing something else, how about we have a spidge auction.
I have a 4" brass fairlead that I found off Mulion Cove in Cornwall and a brass engine cooling circuit plate given to me by a diver I worked with many years ago.
It doesn't have to be just spidge, anything nautical/dive related could be auctioned.
We list all the stuff and then put private bids (via PM) to the auctioneer and then the highest bid by the closing date gets the stuff.
The vendor picks up the postage cost and the buyer makes the donation to the RNLI.

I have participated in such an auction several times with one the preservation groups I belong to and it works well.
