FULL-SCALE SHIP. The next step in the development of the National Civil War Naval Museum at Port Columbus is the creation of the USS Water Witch. This full-scale ship representation is to be built between the museum and Victory Drive (Hwy 280/27) and represents one of the most exciting events in Civil War Naval History.

EDUCATION PLATFORM & NEW LANDMARK. The ship is to form a brand new educational programming platform, plus act as a new landmark for Columbus, an icon for South Commons, the Gateway to Columbus South and a signpost for Port Columbus.

CONTRIBUTE WITH YOUR OWN PLANK. Fund raising is currently underway and supporters of the museum and those interested in the issues listed above may participate by being a "plank owner" on the new ship, by contributing from $100 and up.
