Visited the Civil War Naval Museum. Interesting stuff, but not a large museum.
Confederate Iron Clad Ram CSS Jackson. It was burned and sunk, before seeing any fighting, to prevent it from being captured.
Cut away of the armor the iron clad had. 2: 2"layers of iron and 18-24" of wood.
CSS Chattahoochee aft end. You can see one of the shafts of the propeller
