Interesting little museum. The docents were really nice and did great talks. It has a wonderful collection of beautifully kept / restored wooden boats of all sizes and types.

Stunning boats and nice exhibits. Coming by boat and staying on a mooring for the night made it extra special. Thanks to the Dockmaster, Jacob, for outstanding service.

Great historical museum. Lots of Herreshoff design boats. Old classic design. Great to be surround by the amazing boats. Great location. Marina by the museum. 10 minutes walk to the town. Great place for hosting event such as Hylas rendezvous.

I own a Herreshoff America Catboat circa 1973. This summer, while she was moored over in Swansea, MA, the rudder was ost so I need to build a new one. Does anyone have a plan? Or a barndoor rudder I can take a tracing for size and shape?

Reach out to Herreshoff Designs ( http://www.herreshoffdesigns.com/) The Museum deals with the work of Nathanael Greene and John Brown Herreshoff's maritime exploits (1865-1945)

Could I find a Half Hull Model of our Herreshoff 28 to purchase at the Museum?

No, the museum does not have half hulls for sale. Not sure if the model room at the museum has any L. Francis designs.
