In the Inland Navigation Museum of Vereniging De Binnenvaart, aboard the René Siegfried, inland navigation can be seen and experienced with an eye to the past, present and future. Pusher R. Siegfried (1963) with restored wheelhouse and an inland navigation simulator. Also an inland navigation documentation center and a floating container (Lash-barge). The training ship Princess Beatrix (1960) and Veerdienst 3 have a berth at the Inland Navigation Museum. Veerdienst 3 maintains a connection by water with the Baggermuseum in Sliedrecht. 

The 1953 Marot is one of the historic ships that can be viewed in the dock. On board, among other things, there is an impressive scale model on display by model builder Harry Tullemans, which gives a wonderful picture of what the area around shipyard De Biesbosch looked like in the 1950s and 1960s.
In addition to the Marot, the Leefwerf is home to the small French engine Pomerol, former steam ferry Het Zwarte Zwaantje, barge La Bohème, steam cargo boat Oosterwijk and the spits Avenir.

The Inland Navigation Museum and the ships with exhibits at the Living Wharf are free to visit on Thursdays and Saturdays from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. The grounds of the Living Wharf are open to the public daily from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m.
