In the large exhibition hall you can admire five boats that write the history of inland navigation, as well as numerous fishing nets used by the fishermen of Bolsena and two dioramas by Mario Bordo.
The tour starts with the "naue" of Posta Fibreno, a lake in the province of Frosinone, which evokes the idea of a pirogue carved from a single trunk due to its longitudinal structure that lacks a true load-bearing frame (without ribs). Next is the Fondi boat, a lakeside boat with a flat-bottom hull, an extremely elongated triangular shape, used at the end of the 19th and beginning of the 20th century. At the far end of the hall near the entrance you can admire the Bolsena bbarka, made of mahogany with olive ribbing, much larger than the Bracciano boat which is visible in the green fiberglass model. Further on is the Sabatina 22, which began to write the pages of lake regattas; not a fishing boat but a pleasure craft.
Among the boats are touches of color from the numerous fishing nets donated by the fishermen of Marta.
Beside the side exit you can see a sarcophagus with lid and a cinerary with a limestone lid dating to the 6th century B.C., from Isola Bisentina.
