The Nautical Museum

The Nautical Museum is dedicated to the discovery of an 18th century yacht named Peggy and its eccentric owner Captain George Quayle – politician, banker, soldier, and allegedly, a smuggler. Visitors can learn about the yacht's history and look at model boats and fishing equipment.
