22.01.2022 Our Jessica Watson/La Balsa banner left this morning on loan to the Qld Maritime Museum. The banner will form part of a sailing display in Brisbane for the next couple of months. We have started planning a new exhibition so stayed tuned.

22.01.2022 The Museums new Galvanized Steel Tabernacle Flagpole mount has been installed thanks to Chris Barnett. On the ground in the photo is the old wooden mount what’s left of it, an accident waiting to happen. This should serve as a timely warning for those with wooden mounts to check them now and save any potential damage to property and/or persons. If replacement or repairs are necessary ring Chris Barnett 0418 104 302.

21.01.2022 Last Friday, because of a shortage of volunteers, the Museum closed a couple of hours earlier than the usual 2.30pm closing time. We apologise for any inconvenience this may have caused.

03.01.2022 We remain closed to the public, but did you know ... It was not long ago that it was cheaper to make your own clothes than to buy them at the store. Clothes were hand sewn and most people only owned a few items. In the 1850s Isaac Singer made a sewing machine that enabled the user to work faster than sewing by hand.
