Tahoe Maritime Museum, Lake Tahoe

Amazingly well-preserved watercraft artifacts of Tahoe's maritime history are found here. The museum is used for public education and is a non-profitable organization. Boats, engines, motors, memorabilia...it's a sailor's paradise! Photographs dating back to the late 19th century are also on display. One can view almost antique hydroplanes along with modern day aquaplanes and water-skis, making this a veritable trip through history. Anglers will be happy to spot various types of fishing gear, boats and poles among the loftier watercrafts. Keen on keeping alive the local history, the museum publishes newsletters, produces videos, maintains audio/video archives and conducts regular sales. A membership contributes to the conservation of the local heritage. Closed on Wednesdays.
