BERMUDA

Bermuda, given its strategically important position between the Caribbean and Europe, has a large number of forts, ramparts, and gun emplacements; over 60 total. Most are small with minimal or no information, if they are even accessible. I have listed the most interesting and informative here.

There are also several shipwrecks visible on the surface or just under, including former HMS Vixen off the west coast, and the Taifun in St. George's harbor.

Bermuda Maritime Museum
http://www.nmb.bu/

Royal Navy Dockyard
The former British naval dockyard has been converted into a large shopping plaza. In the midst of all the capitalism, there is a museum on the maritime history of Bermuda, which is, given the geography of Bermuda, a history of Bermuda itself.

Fort St. Catharine

St. George's, NE corner of the island
Large fort, built up over the 18th and 19th centuries. There are diorama showing a brief history of the colonization of Bermuda, the history of the fort, and a series of displays on the the construction and operation of the fort. There are also spectacular views of the sea, and a ghost.

U-2540 was raised in 1957 by the company Beckedorfand. Sold to shipyard Howaldtswerke, towed to Kiel. Completely repaired and refitted by 1958. Given new Type class 241. 1 September 1960 renamed "U Wilhelm Bauer", Nato "Y 880". Retired from active military duties 1968. On 20 May 1970 returned to active duty by a civilian organization for industrial testing. Multiple accidents (primarily two collisions with destroyers) made repairs of the boat too expensive, so re-retired 18 November, 1980. Sold to the Schiffartsmueseu 15 March 1982.
Walk-through tours are available.
The cog was recovered from the mud of the Weser River, and is being preserved.
Parts of submarines on display, such as a TDC and a scope. Many models ships from sailing ships up to the modern frigates and destroyers of the Kreigsmarine.
It is advisable to go there between April and October because only in this period is it possible to visit the ships and the subs, since they are lying in a harbour basin and therefore are closed for the public when it may be dangerous to visit them due to weather conditions.

UNITED KINGDOM

I have deferred this section to a site created by Drs. Janet West and M. H. Evans, a wife and husband team. Their site is very comprehensive, and brought up to date in 2015. It lists over 250 museums and 450 historic vessels (many are part of museum collections, and a large number are small vessels) in the British Isles, including Ireland. To save space I'll just give a pointer.

The web site:

Due to the huge size of the list, I have separated the USA section to its own page:
