If you love engineering museums, then this is a must. Loads of things to read, see, touch and marvel at. Small cafe and gift shop to spend a bit more cash in. Worth a visit.

Friendly staff interesting museum showing how hull model testing influenced the design of ships and how the Denny yard evolved and what it meant to the Dumbarton community.
Such a shame this was all we could see because of the pandemic. Hope to come back for another holiday and see more
Staff with good knowledge. Museum is small but worth a visit.
The staff are wonderful! They ensure you get the most out of your visit: there when needed, as much/ as little as you want. Ronald O'Kane kindly did the introduction tour twice for our group so the hard of hearing and parents could benefit without our littlest ones. Very interesting to find out how much we owe to the town of Dumbarton and to learn about the brilliance of Denny's that helped shape our shipping world. The children's spacious facilities are surprisingly good!! Found it hard to get both young and old out of the museum, haha!
Excellent place for children as well as naval architecture students.
I'm not into boat building but found the place interesting. There are some kids activities. There are a few stairs up into the building and also inside. I never seen wheelchair access or a lift.
Not very good - almost bad - as naval museum, but as museum dedicated this particular place - quite good. If you are interested in ships and navy in general - don't waste your time. If you interesed in people who built this ships... You can spend here one hours.
