NEW LONDON, Conn. (AP) Court papers say Connecticut's official flagship, the Amistad schooner, has outstanding debt totaling more than $2 million.

The Day of New London reports that the organization's former executive director, Greg Belanger, says he is owed $139,000 in back pay and repayments of loans to three members of its Board of Trustees.

Mystic Seaport says it is owed more than $45,000 for work and services it provided for the schooner Amistad over six years, former captains and crew members and several small businesses and organizations.

The replica of a 19th century slave ship captured by African captives is a symbol of America's early anti-slavery movement.

The organization that operates the ship has lost its nonprofit status for failing to file federal tax returns and is now in the hands of a state receiver.
