It was a calm, clear night when the SS Comet set sail across the Great Lakes. Like many nights such as these, it was smooth sailing as far as the eye could see. Who would have guessed that in just a matter of hours, the ship would sink below the waves of Lake Ontario, taking all but a few of her passengers with her. Will you go down with the ship or succeed in reaching a lifeboat?

Throughout the evening, you are encouraged to interact with Museum staff to solve the mystery, discover actual shipwreck artifacts and take part in interactive games and activities. At the end of the night, all will be revealed… Who snagged a spot in a lifeboat, and who remained aboard our sinking ship? Prizes are up for grabs for those who solved the mystery!

This is an 18+ event. Tickets are $20 and include admission and a drink ticket; additional non-alcoholic and alcoholic beverages are available for purchase.

The Museum is excited to partner with Something in the Water Brewing to offer an evening of music, socializing, and food & drink services.

Since then we’ve repowered, installed Starlink, and retired from work. Now, with confidence in our engine and our connectivity and more time to sail, we were Superior-ready.
