King's barge at British Maritime Museum

Stopped at the Museum while in London waiting for our camper van to get fixed. Lots of nice exhibits, including the king's barge from more than a hundred years ago, really nice collection of Turner's maritime paintings, and nearby is the Cutty Sark and Greenwich Observatory. Yes, I stood on the 0 longitude line for a photo and can hardly imagine being at the helm of a clipper ship like the Cutty Sark when the wind is up. What a ride that would be.
