  Decent collection, I especially appreciated the carrack, a very imposing early Knights heavy ship. The museum could benefit from more in-depth explanations, for example which campaigns did the Knights undertake, why some ship designs were more effective than others, and life onboard the ships. I was also puzzled by a "cut-out" model which wasn't cut out at all, or perhaps it was in closed position?
