Membership in the Marine Historical Society of Detroit is an excellent way to gain insight into the Great Lakes shipping scene past and present. We would be pleased to have you join us. Annual dues are just $40 and include:
12 issues of our monthly publication, The Detroit Marine Historian. View a recent issue HERE.
The society's beautiful, full-color 12-month calendar featuring color images of historic Great Lakes vessels, the only annual calendar of its kind and sure to please any ship buff. See the 2023 calendar HERE, featuring photography of Great Lakes marine historian and author William M. Worden. He was honored as Great Lakes Marine Historian of the Year for 2022 by the Marine Historical Society of Detroit and is vice president of the MHSD.
Invitations to our regular entertainment meetings. In the past, these have included cruises about the Diamond Jack River Tours boats as well as our annual dinner meeting, held each year in May.
Past calendars and back issues of The Historian are available to members at a modest cost. Each month features the color picture and information relating to the history of the vessel. Our membership and fiscal year begins September 1. Current issues of The Historian starting with the September issue, along with the current calendar, will be sent to those who join in midyear.
