I believe that one of the four Drysdale pumps that kept the Mary afloat during her heydays still exists in the after engineroom. The other three were in the...
I was a bit dismayed last year when I went to Sunday Brunch to find that they are no longer including the tip in the admission price. In 2002 when I went...
I didn't know a tip was added. I tipped on top of the $28.00. Maybe that's why they no longer add the tip. People didn't kow and double tipped. That does not...
I enjoyed the museum except for the constant piped-in music. The music wasn't bad, but it was a bit much. I don't remember the music from my first visit to...
Hmm, I actually LIKE the music myself...in fact I have called the ship so many times I hum along to the familiar tune they play while on hold. LOL.. I like the...
I also love the music of the 30s and 40s, and think it's a nice touch to have it playing in the background on the ship. But I do have to say that the last time...
Yes, of course I love the music of the 30s and the 40s, but the ship as a museum doesn't lend itself to the constant playing of this music. And I do think it...
Hmm..didn't notice the music there the last time I was in that area, which was a long time ago. I'll have to check that one out. I agree with you on the black...
Hi all, Here's a question that's always intrigued my manic, perhaps obsessive, attention to detail, but I've never found an answer for it. Perhaps some of the...
It's not surprising to me that the ships original fire doors were replaced. I would imagine that city codes mandated a door that would resist flame moreso...
How about the paranoia of asbestos? Frank ... replaced. I would ... moreso than the 1936 ... for ... me ... the ... if ... the ... aft. ... to ... vexed! ;)...

Frank, Thanks for sharing your wonderful memory of the ships engines. I am always intrigued when I go down to the engine room to know what it was like when...
It is strange how coincidences come together. Last weekend there was an article in our local newspaper by a columnist friend of mine who was doing a story on...
Thank you for sharing all of this with us Frank..how sad it must have been down by Door 13. Tell me, how was it relayed to you that Mr Pedder actually died?...
Well, personally, I don't much like the idea of promoting the ship as being full of ghosts. I have stayed onboard many times in the hotel and never had...
I certainly agree with this wholeheartedly. I too have been all over the ship, alone and have never met a ghost or felt any weird chills, etc. IMO promoting...
Well Dan, I have been to the ship many, many times within the last almost 5 years now, and have had quite a few experiences. You can't tell me the ship isn't...

Well I wouldn't hold your breath, people are fascinated by the unknown, and reports have been coming in for years now that the ship is haunted. The ship is...
The freaky ... right ... Baloney. Pure baloney. First, the kennels were not in an area where people are now able to just causally pause during a stroll around...
Ive herd from a good source that the ship doesnt make money from the ship wreck thing...that the mnoey goes to some one who produces it. does anyone know if...
Damn right I went on the Ghosts and Legends tour and the guide got annoyed with me as I was just disagreeing with everything they were saying about the ship...
No, the Frightfest is a good thing, the ship needs the revenue. The Ghosts and Legends tour isn't such a good thing, but at least it opens up the spaces that...
OK, that's good info. Her story was inaccurate. Can anyone tell me who has been on the Ghosts and Legends tour, is it worth the money? What is it, $10 or...
... I have it from a very reliable source that the ship DOES in fact make a lot of money from the Shipwreck Halloween thing. It funds a lot of operations for...
