Falls of Clyde Restored as Floating Museum in Honolulu
The Falls of Clyde, the last and only remaining four-masted sailing ship, has been rebuilt in Honolulu as a floating museum after decades of decline. Restorer Kleinschmidt and volunteers preserved original hulls, masts, and decks while adding authentic features to reflect seafaring life circa 100 years ago. The project, supported by the Bishop Museum and public donations, aims to educate visitors about historic ocean travel between Hawaii and the Pacific, with a focus on accuracy and historical context.
