Ship Space is an interactive maritime museum in Inverness, Scotland. The museum is situated along the historic Caledonian Canal at the Muirtown Basin. The 1:10 scale Titanic model is one of the main attractions.
The original west building (toll house) is used as a residential house and the east, which has been recently constructed in the mode of the original building, is a museum.
Inside the museum building there are various interactive exhibits, photos, posters and information about the boat available as well as a rolling film that shows divers going down to the sunken ship.
Outside, the 1:10 scale Titanic model is the centrepiece of the museum. The scale model contains three main rooms: a Parisian-styled café, a replica bridge, and a Marconi radio communications room.
Other exhibits outside include:
A replica of the Nautile submarine, one of the mini submersibles that dove 3 miles down to the Titanic
The Guiding Star, a West Coast creel fishing boat which was the last built at Inverness Thornbush slipway.
A full-scale replica of the Star Of Hope, the first Herring Drifter from Buckie.
A 45ft RNLI Watson Class life boat.
