The Puget Sound Maritime Historical Society was founded in 1948 to help residents and visitors learn about the maritime heritage of the Pacific Northwest. Membership in The not-for-profit organization is open to anyone. Its purpose is to collect, preserve and display maritime historical objects, relics and data with particular emphasis on the Pacific Northwest. The organization sponsors monthly dinner meetings that feature a lecture on an aspect of maritime history, such as a vessel’s role in maritime industry.
