Finger Lakes Boating Museum
The Lakes Through Their Boatbuilders
Discover
The Finger Lakes Boating Museum in Hammondsport preserves the region’s boating heritage. Its galleries represent local boatbuilders, connecting vessels with the communities and waters they served. A close look at construction and shape can reveal different priorities, from carrying people to recreation, and open questions about the skills behind a finished boat.

The Finger Lakes have a boatbuilding story as well as a landscape story. This Hammondsport museum offers a way to explore both through regional craft.
