    Strolling through the city, we stopped to visit the Maritime Museum & the Shipwreck Museum. The former was pretty good & they let us old codgers in for a discounted $10 AUD (about $6.50 US). The latter requested donation only.

    We saw a submarine, fishing vessels, and the Australian boat that beat the Americans to win the America's Cup in 1983 - a very proud moment for the Aussies.
