Ross Tiger, Fishing trawler museum ship in Grimsby, England.
Ross Tiger is a fishing trawler from the 1950s now displayed at Alexandra Dock in Grimsby as a museum. The ship shows the typical equipment and layout of a trawler that fishermen used to work the North Sea.
The ship was built in the 1950s and worked during the peak years of Grimsby's fishing industry. It was later preserved and now stands as an important record of the town's maritime past.
The ship tells the story of work at sea and shows how dangerous and exhausting life was for fishermen. Visitors can understand the conditions the crew faced and why this work mattered so much to the town.
The museum is easy to reach by public transport and has parking near the dock. Access to the ship itself can vary depending on weather and tides, so it's worth checking ahead before visiting.
The ship's deck was partially renewed in 2022, but some original pieces from the 1950s remain in place. This mix of new and old material shows how conservation work keeps history alive while protecting the vessel.
