Many hundreds of nautical artifacts of early vessels of the Great Lakes, both steam and sail, from papers, photographs, vessel models, early motors, various types of engines, deck houses, to early birch bark canoes (1700s), even a Lighthouse, are displayed for "hands on" inspection and enjoyment. All this in an uncrowded park setting, overlooking South Bay. Nearby Point Traverse is north America's most important "dive" site, where there are more than fifty shipwrecks, almost in view of the Museum.
