I was only upstairs of the museum building. Not much up there relating to the museum. Theres a beautiful & enormous sized (hand-painted?) art piece on the floor leaned against the wall. View of an ocean (unsure which specifically) w/ a large Coast Guard ship in the center. Unsure if its new, taken off the wall for a reason or possible temp location of this art. It needs to be on a wall & viewed by as many people as possible.The upstairs does have a bar area, lots of open flooring, movable podium, plenty of long collapsible tables & stackable chairs. I assume this upstairs area can be reserved/used for events & a lecture type arena.Lots of ships were in port & special to see so many up close.

Ship ahoy matey may your sails be full of. Wind

Excellent Coast Guard Museum! Highly recommend going! Check the hours as there are few docents who volunteer! Semper Paratus

Lots of interesting Coast Guard history. A very nice veteran showed us around and chatted with us for over an hour.

This place is really interesting, I recommend visiting and learning about the evolution of the Coast Guard from the historian who works here. He will guide you through the exhibits and answer any questions you may have.

I was very impressed with how friendly and knowledgeable the Volunteers were in explaining various exhibits and sharing stories about their past Military service.

It has a lot of Coast Guard history and historical items. I cant wait for the new one to open up.

Its very small. The volunteer staff are wonderful though. Tons of stories and knowledgeable about everything.

Its a really neat place.

Very enjoyable and we loved hearing the stories from the caretakers.
