AWESOME video! Thank you for posting this!! I just heard about this on the show Beyond Oak Island! It’s AMAZING how all those items survived n look brand new!! I would definitely love to visit that museum!!
Wow as someone who is trying to collect restore and give old things new life I wish I had the contents of a boat like this. I was just at Lincoln's New Salem in Illinois and got to see a barn frame loom and great wheel spinning wheel in person hopefully I'll get the chance to build my own and use the sheep I'm raising
Everything there was amazing… And in great quantity. And they haven’t cleaned everything yet either. I will definitely be going back next year as they rotate out the contents as they clean new items. Good luck with your spinning wheel!
I was at this place in 2009. It is fascinating to see. At the same time we saw a huge room where people were busy cleaning and restoring the cargo that was found in the vessel.
I had always thought of these old river boats as just floating gambling resorts, I should have realised they were so much more, thanks for another interesting and informative video, I'd best subscribe.
They employ a full time Preservation expert as well as a few restoration specialists. It’s my understanding that they have only cleaned about half of what I found! Can you imagine?
@@JulianGower It is great that the items have been preserved like that, and give us a glimpse into the past. Sounds just like the Titanic in many ways ps I have subscribed to your channel, being a student of history.
Wow this is incredibly cool and interesting. Don't get to see things like this from our history very often, let alone a collection this large.
Absolutely fascinating! Really enjoyed the video! Top Lady!
I will have to make the trip to KC and visit that museum.
Thank you for sharing.
You should! It's a pretty amazing place.
Amazing to see all this stuff that was recovered. It almost looks brand new!

Would of loved to of seen more of the tools being a qualified professional master Carpenter myself , but absolutely amazing video, many thanks
FANTASTIC! I wonder if that was uranium glass at the end? Thanks for taking us along with you!
It looked like it was lit from underneath but it was just as glowing as uranium glass. I was so drawn to it!

That would be an amazing job to have!
Thank you
Very cool to see. We go here every few years.
New sub here. This was amazing!
Welcome aboard!
Can you imagine the cleaning of all that. I’d love to see a video of the discovery.

How on earth did everything get restored, it all looks like new.

the steam boat is contracted to move to a new location in St. Charles Missouri in 2026
I heard that a couple of weeks ago. I’m very upset about that. I feel like it needs to stay in Kansas City. I hate it when we lose culture like this.
The St. Charles deal fell through….
I find Indian artifacts you should come with me and you find something I do ever time I go. I’m not to far from you
