The site of the "Wright Seaplane Base" is located on the bend of the Great Miami River in West Carrollton, Ohio off I-75 exit 47. Stop anytime to check out the historical marker and observe where the Wright Brothers tested several of their seaplane designs.
Our Mission
Wright Seaplane Base, Inc. is dedicated to all things aviation. However, our primary mission is preserving and sharing the Wright Brothers philosophy of flight and Orville’s efforts that contributed to the development of hydro-aeroplane technology. Wright Seaplane Base, Inc. is an educational non-profit 501(c)(3) organization founded in 2007 to preserve the memory of aviation activities contributed by Orville and Wilbur Wright. WSBI is dedicated to recovering this lost piece of American aviation history: the Wright Model "G" Aeroboat. Explore our website to learn more about WSBI and our cause.
