I am the Interpretive Ranger at the Plaquemine Lock State Historic Site. Bayou Plaquemine at one time was the main entrance way into the Atchafalaya Basin from the Mississippi River. Thanks so much for taking this picture and if I hear any information about this boat I will post another comment.
You mean the Mersey Martine Museum at the Albert Dock?

I've been there a few times & found it very interesting.

The section on emigration compliments the one at Ellis Island very well.

There's also a few ships dry docked, along with lots of large anchors & other ships equipment.
The Queen Elizabeth sank after catching fire in Hong Kong Harbour in the early 1970s.
