Sauce for Liberty Belle still being afloat:

The armchair imagineer that is me says:
Discovery Island is big enough to host the entirety of Tom Sawyer island, including the fort.
Heck, add the old laser shooting range too.
Rebuild it into TSI, have boats leave from Contemporary/Fort Wilderness/Wilderness Lodge, and you've got an instant budget destination that can probably be built for under $25 million if you salvage stuff from the existing TSA.
Run some quick-serve stuff there, an old west trading post, and combined with other standard resort ameneties, you've just extended the time your guests stay and can get a few more dollars out of them too. It can also justify an entire non-park 'Old West' day on-site, split between:
>Resort Pool
>Visiting the new island
>Tri-Circle D for a horseback trail ride
>Archery
>Hoop-De-Doo Revue
>Ideally step aboard the Liberty Belle too, even if it is just in port at a resort, but would be really cool if it was equipped with a real steering mechanism and could tour Bay Lake (It's already just north of Bay Lake right now, it was towed all the way around).
