The 86-tonne, two mastered ketch Sigurfari (Kútter Sigurfari) is arguably the museum's most notable artefact, located outside the main museum building. Sigurfari was built in England in 1885, out of oak. It was used for fishing in Iceland until 1919 and in the Faroe Islands until the 1970s. Sigurfari is the only preserved ship of its kind in Iceland. Formerly open to the public, Sigurfari is now unsafe to board and is in need of restoration.
