Museum of Yachting

Fodor's Review:

The museum has four displays: the Single-Handed Sailors Hall of Fame, the World of Model Yachts, the Classic Wooden Boat Collection, and Seasonal Marine Art exhibits. You can also see the legendary two-time America's Cup winner and Rhode Island State Yacht Courageous, which are highlights in the America's Cup Gallery. In 2007, the museum joined with the International Yacht Restoration School to form one organization.
