Dec 16, 2024 · Google ReviewWhat an incredible museum. A piece of recent American Waterman history not to be missed. The personal tour was lead by people who actually experienced life working the water. Their first hand knowledge is displayed with so many artifacts and local art history. I suggest you allow yourself some time to browse leisurely and take it all in.
