Default Visiting a Submarine

Also USS Cobia in Manitowoc Wi. @ Wisconsin Maritime Museum as well as a
very interesting exhibit on subs in general and those built in Manitowoc in
particular. Also interesting stuff about Wisconsin built boats including
Burger & Palmer Johnson. See http://www.wimaritimemuseum.org/index.html

Also, subs are on display in Baltimore, Charleston, New York, and a

variety of
other places.


On the west coast - you can tour the Blueback at the OMSI in Portland,
OR. If I recall correctly, the Blueback was the last of the Navy's
diesel-electrics.

I seem to recall reading somewhere that the public could tour a
decommissioned sub in either Boston or Baltimore. The Navy web sites

aren't
much help with this sort of thing. Anyone got any info on such things?
