Story

Edwin Fox is unique in that she is the \"only intact hull of a wooden deepwater sailing ship built to British specifications surviving in the world outside the Falkland Islands.\" She is the world's second oldest surviving merchant sailing ship and is also the only surviving ship that transported convicts to Australia. Edwin Fox carried settlers to both Australia and New Zealand and carried troops in the Crimean War. The ship is dry-docked at The Edwin Fox Maritime Centre at Picton in New Zealand.

Had no idea this was here. You can actually walk on the ship and see what things were like when it was in use. A lot of hard work has gone into this, amazing:
Very interesting. I'm not into boats but I spent almost 2 hours watching the movie and reading all the notes on exhibits then going through the ship.
The ship itself is fantastic with plenty of hands on exhibits that give a real sense of what life on board would have been like.
Took our granddaughter for a look, she enjoyed it very much for a 9 year old and took a lot of photos.
Great place, amazing museum and fantastic ship!
Such an amazing experience, great work done by the community to preserve the oldest ship "alive" who carried convicts in the 19th century. Allow one hour to cover both the ships itseld and the exhibition within the museum shop.
Really loved this museum. A must if in Picton. The history of the ship is fascinating and seeing the size of it when walking through is incredible. Lovely staff and very central location. My highest recommendation for the town.
I learnt alot at the museum it was very cool.
