  • Amazing experience. The volunteers that work here are so passionate. Go during sunset and watch the sun go down and have a drink on the boat. Great views.

  • An amazing piece of history! Current owner needs all the regular help he can get to continue to preserve history! We loved the tour, very informative! Very educational and fun! Veterans receive discount on entry fee.
  • What a great piece of history to interact with. My husband and I try to get on any historical ship or submarine that we can. The bravery and dedication of the men and women that served on these vessels is truly incredible.
