Before entering U.S. Navy basic training, I took the opportunity to tour the USS Cobia, which is a WW2 attack submarine, that is part of the museum. I was impressed with the knowledgeable tour guide.
Since then, the museum has been revamped/remodeled. From what I understand, it is a first rate facility, with exhibits and displays covering the trade shipping on the Great Lakes,and the part that Manitowoc played in the maritime industry, with shipbuilding included.
As it happened, I was qualified for Aviation Duty...aircraft carriers...fresh air sailor. The only time I spent below the main deck was to have chow.
