Mon, 16 Jan 2012 14:30:02 +0100 (AP) - FILE - A Saturday, Nov. 22, 1997 photo from files provided by the Royal Navy showing the Royal Yacht Britannia sailing into Portsmouth southern England for the last time before she was decommissioned in December1997. What do you get for a monarch who has almost everything? Not, apparently, a new yacht, at least not one paid for with taxpayer funds. That was the message Monday, Jan. 16, 2012, as a brief boomlet of support for the idea of providing Queen Elizabeth II with a new royal yacht to mark her Diamond Jubilee was quickly deflated by Prime Minister David Cameron. It is estimated that a new yacht would cost at least 60 million pounds ($92 million/72,455,000 euro). Cameron's spokesman Steve Field said it would not be appropriate for public funds to be spent on a new yacht during times of economic hardship. (AP Photo/Royal Navy, Roger Littler, File)

An area of low pressure lingers over the western Caribbean Sea, pushing moisture onshore and triggering scattered showers and thunderstorms over Honduras and Nicaragua. Meanwhile in the north, a frontal boundary over the Southeastern U.S. extends into the Gulf of Mexico, producing periods of heavy rains and strong winds. (AP Photo/Weather Underground)
