About this place
What to expect
Come and check out what is possibly the largest and only Model Paddlesteamer collection of its kind in the entire world, with over 30 hand-made replicas hand-crafted with amazing and intricate detail. A lifetime of work on display. Riverboat Rod constructs each Paddle Steamer as closely as possible to the original design. Many boats Rod has built range between 300 and 700 hours. The attention to detail is just incredible and some of his models now feature in museums around Australia and at the Wentworth Shire Council's office. A donation on entry would be very much appreciated to help Rod cover the expense of printing the information pamphlets with detailed descriptions of each steamer, that are also available.
