History on the Lake

If you want to head to Slidell, you can tour PT-305.

The PT-305 was built in New Orleans by Higgins Industries and was vital to the success in the European theater in WWII. For $12 for adults and $10 for kids 8-17, you can tour this fully, and faithfully, restored patrol-torpedo boat.
