It is the world's largest antique wooden boat show.

This museum houses many maritime items and artwork, including model ships, antique boats, navigation equipment, paintings and photographs.

In the summer of 2012, there will be an added display on the ship of antique boats from Muskegon.

The event brings about 8,000 to 10,000 boaters and visitors each year from all over the United States coming together to appreciate antique boats.

The winners of the antique boats are chosen by the visitors attending the event.

New canoe projects as well as antique boats are frequently docked at the Maritime Center.

Since its founding 35 years ago, the Antique Boat Museum has assembled more than 200 antique wooden boats.

An exhibit of antique boats will include a 1939 hydroplane once raced by Guy Lombardo.

The museum is also home to many antique boats both completed and currently undergoing restoration.

The smallest antique boat at the show was Charlie's Boat, a 12-foot mahogany rowboat built in 1930.
