This place is a real gem. The displays are excellent, involving and informative. There are all kinds of vessels on show including racing yachts, Pacific Island canoes, the warship and sub (you can crawl all over both of these!), a lightship, ferry and sailing boats.

There are displays depicting Australia’s naval and military history, early colonisation, indigenous seafaring, sport and recreational sailing and just about every aspect of maritime life.

There's a very nicely restored Wessex hanging from the ceiling, too.

I have walk around galleries of the Wessex and Oberon in the walkaround sections of this site.
