I am trying to locate Chicago area museums or private collections that contain some authentic small watercraft, up to small tugs and period canal houseboats. I cannot seem to locate anything except documents and photos. Are there any public (or private) collections of regional small historic Chicago area watercraft that you are aware of?
Thank you for your time;
