Is that the one from "The Hunt For Red October"?
I thought that one was in Maine.

nope
This one was last used by the Russian President in 2006.
It's still in Russian waters.

I'd paint it yellow
...and invite all my friends to come live in it with me.
But no Blue Meanies, they don't like music.

What borders on stupidity?
Canada and Mexico.

I was thinking about cruising
I was thinking about cruising towards Washington DC in it.
give the ol' PTB a heart attack at a ballistic missile sub headed for Washington.

"Cryptocurrency OK"...
Sounds as though they know their potential buyers pretty well. Google says that's only 53.6 bitcoins.

~sigh~ please don't remind me.
That was a horrible decision to not get bitcoin just as it started. I turned down 250.

Think of it as a potential private yacht. Hurricane proof among many other amenities. Even as a child I always thought submarines were the perfect ship. Though they wouldn't be suitable as the vast number of working vessels must be of design to function, such as fishing vessels.
Hummm? Do they take payments in goats?

Now Barbie darling... You are just about as far from the sea as pretty well most people in the lower 48. What are you going to do with a Sub in your backyard? Sadly, a few old goats won't cut the mustard I'm afraid. What on earth would you do for fuel? Dried Goat Poo won't do much now will it.

Barbie's smart, don't
Barbie's smart, don't underestimate her. In her backyard the thing doesn't need reactors. Why not to sell them? It will give some cash (to pay for the thing) and will leave a lot of place to build a furnace fueled by goat poo.
lose the reactors? are you
lose the reactors? are you nuts?
power to cruise for 50 years without refilling the fuel.
power for railguns to carve a new canal. ( even a harbour. )
just think of all the fun you could have with a submarine that you have enough provisions for years of hiding after carving that canal through Iraq.

Oklahoma Seaside Resort
Some time ago, there was talk of a plot to create something like an Oklahoma ocean-side resort.
Fuel? If it's a nuclear submarine, you need mildly-enriched uranium. And if you plan on using its ICBM facilities, you need hyper-enriched uranium.

Of course you know about the guy building a 75 foot steel boat in his front yard in Tulsa:

Does he think that he's Noah? Does he think a catastrophic flood is coming to Tulsa?

Nope
Doug has just about finished building her and she will be launched soon, to sail as a research vessel anywhere and everywhere.

yeah
a great yacht that requires a degree in nuclear engineering to start the engines. ;)
the silos could be converted to workshops. Hey put a forge in and try black-smithing.
traumatize the us navy by cruising this russian war machine around us waters. :D

Fuel....
Ms Lee could ask her cousins in Tennessee if they have any lying around their backyard (Oak Ridge). And I’m sure Hanford has some lying around too. Space X might have a couple re-usable icbm’s for sale too. Just remind the NSA that privatization is a Republican priority.

For Some Reason...
...I was picturing it in the harbor at Penmarris, next to the yacht, as Dottie Fairbairn tries to figure out a way to get rid of those moles without taking the whole town along with them...

with the reactors you could
with the reactors you could power up a rail gun easily and have a massive kinetic impact to annihilate the varmints.
