As home to the National PT Boat Museum, Battleship Cove displays the world’s largest collection of PT boat artifacts and memorabilia.
​
The nucleus of this collection are PT Boats 617 and 796, the world’s only restored pair of PTs on public exhibition.
These National Historic Landmarks are complemented by a vast assemblage of ephemera collected by WWII PT boaters in the Pacific and Atlantic theaters, artifacts that help us to appreciate not only the heritage of PT boaters but also the diverse cultures (Japanese, German, Italian, French, and British) of the regions from which these items were drawn.
