Mariner's Museum - Other Interesting Exhibits

Some other things I found that grabbed my attention. The whole Trieste program completely fascinates me. The Navy Museum onboard the Navy Yard in DC has the better Trieste display overall (duh - they have the vessel), but what the Mariner's Museum did better was the display. I learned some new things about the vessel and the mission. Ship emblems are also really cool nautical fare. They are not as colorful today as they used to be.

Mariner's Museum - Ironclads

The proverbial crown jewels of this museum are the exhibits focusing on the Civil War era Ironclad ships and the circumstances surrounding the implementation of these warfare changing vessels. The exhibits were first class and getting to see the actual turret/engines/and other artifacts was worth the price of admission.
