Sign In or Sign Up to

Visit a WW II warship painstakingly refurbished, inspect the 4 inch gun, the bridge complete with wheel, compasses, radar screen and more. See the chart house where the navigator worked over his charts and the refurbished officers cabins and their wardroom. Get down amongst the powerful reciprocating steam engines. Ask a guide to explain how things work. How do you 'flash up' a boiler?

Visitors can also inspect the crew's mess as well as a fascinating collection of nautical exhibits and memorabilia of the past.

An interesting variety of souvenirs are available for sale. The range includes postcards, fridge-magnets, baseball caps with the ship's logo, wineglasses featuring the ship's badge and a short history, a booklet of the ship's history and other objects of interest.
