New owner sought for venerable South Florida lighthouse

Want to own a lighthouse? Here's your chance.

The U.S. government has put the picturesque, 133-year-old Fowey Rocks Light up for adoption. The price is right: Free.

Sure, there's a catch or two. You must run a nonprofit group or local government and prove you can preserve and maintain the historic lighthouse for public use.

And you need a good boat. The Fowey Rocks Lighthouse is on a shallow reef out in the ocean seven miles southeast of the tip of Key Biscayne.
