The Australian National Maritime Museum is home to a collection that centres on all things nautical. Those collected objects may be as small as a shackle from a historic boat, to the very boat itself. The Museum holds 12 vessels within its fleet, making it one of the largest floating historical vessel collections in the world.
Many of those vessels are active working “exhibits”, including a replica of the tall ship the Duyfken, which celebrated her 25th anniversary in January. Together, a team of shipwrights maintain or conserve the ships.
