I visited here in October 2015. The museum is really nice and the ship has lots of interesting things to see.

It was closed when I got here but looks interesting. Will stop again if I get the chance but the ship looks nice from the outside.
[Brock Whitley, 06/22/2016]They have a self-guided walking tour that doesn't take too long. Not a good place to stop with people who can not walk well.
