- Dan HeneiseNovember 12, 2016It was really good even though about 3 ships were closed for maintenance/reconstruction. The submarines were amazing; one Soviet submarine and one modern US, and the view is beautiful!Upvote4Downvote
- Tom BeachJune 13, 2024We toured Star of India, HMS Surprise, San Salvador, Medea yacht, Berkeley steamboat and USS Dolphin submarine. Some steep stairs/steps. Each vessel has unique & interesting features. Worth the visit.Upvote1Downvote
- Jenna Rose RobbinsJanuary 23, 2014You get an awful lot for your admission here. The Russian submarine delighted my niblings, while my favorite is the Star of India, particularly the bottom half. Don't forget the steam ferry!Upvote1Downvote
- eric bornemannOctober 17, 2021Great museum with lots of fun ships to go on and in. That said, the guy at the front desk when you check in is a massive asshole and needs to go.UpvoteDownvote

- Bradford RileyAugust 1, 2016The Star of India is well worth a visit, but overall this site is run down. The other ships/boats are not much to speak of, and many of the exhibits were closed for repairs or just broken.UpvoteDownvote
