Victoria Preston, Deputy Chair, Classic Boat Centre Trust, attended the International Congress of Maritime Museums which took place in Rotterdam and Amsterdam in September 2024.
Delegates were mostly from major maritime museums from all over the world including the Americas, Asia, Australia and Europe.
Noteworthy was the focus on protecting our oceans, being a voice for the refugee crisis and helping save maritime artefacts in Ukraine. A new membership category for volunteer museums has been created and the next Congress will be in Sydney in 2026.
