This is set in the Shelburne museum in VT. This steamship has been fully restored and is so beautiful. It sits on a hill in the Museum. The story of the ship is amazing as how the ship got to its final resting place. It tells the story of a whole different era in American History. This is so worth the trip. The whole museum is handicap accessible and the people working there really treat you well.

An absolute must thing to see while at the Shelburne Museum. It is the centerpiece of the outdoor complex and is a short walk from the main entrance/gift shop. Lots of character and history of this rare boat and the amazing story of how it got on land. There is usually someone in the wheelhouse to ask questions. There are guided tours available.

This location was absolutely gorgeous and in wonderful condition. It was very interesting to see room models, the cars, and the newspapers. I couldnt stop taking pictures! If youre in the area, I really recommend checking it out.

My dad was a deckhand, he showed my his bunk. Around 1944-47. No one alive knows how to run the rocking arm steam engines! They should built a new modern duplicateI could be a deckhand at 70, dont you think??

I still remember touring this boat as a child. In that case I think really did go through the whole thing. I may spend less time on it on visits now, but its always a definite stop on any museum trip, and the story of how it arrived at its present home is fascinating.

Its an awesome piece of history and its worth catching the tour especially if Gary (I believe that was his name) is the one giving it.
