Decommissioning and Preservation
Advance was decommissioned on 6 February 1988, and was transferred to the Australian National Maritime Museum (ANMM), where she remains as of 2011. The patrol boat has been maintained in operational condition by the ANMM; consequently, she is not open for public inspection.

Famous quotes containing the word preservation:
“The preservation of life seems to be rather a slogan than a genuine goal of the anti-abortion forces; what they want is control. Control over behavior: power over women. Women in the anti-choice movement want to share in male power over women, and do so by denying their own womanhood, their own rights and responsibilities.”
—Ursula K. Le Guin (b. 1929)
