Very cool exhibit. I love seeing how old ships are put together. The details of the ship are so interesting. I love the way they have the exhibit so you can walk through and tough and see up close.

Great exhibit BUT the plaques are extremely difficult to read due to weathering. Needs replacement asap!

It's a pretty cool exhibit if you're in the area. There's signage so you can read about the wreck, but what's really cool is that you can actually walk through the boat remains. It's neat.
