Provided by YP.comWhat a wonderful day we spent at the Maritime Museum. Fascinating journey through the world of the maritime history of Oregon. Learned a lot about boat, ships etc.

A beautiful venue and very well kept, but if you're not into all aspects of ships and maritime history, skip this one. We found it a bit of a yawn.
