To see the future, you must understand the past. Support of maritime museums, including Liberty and Victory ships, help people understand the vital role that the marine transportation system has played in the development of communities around the globe. In the United States, our oldest cities are located along the coast, bays, and rivers.

The International Propeller Club advocates and supports the preservation of our maritime heritage through educational programs and providing financial support to organizations that operate maritime museums, historic ships, and other maritime historic centers.
