I remember riding on one of these as a child on the Mississippi! I hope they do restore it.

Nice boat, it is a pity it has been abandoned. Great capture Robin!!

First, I like the image. Second after Walter's comment I had to do the Google thing and came across the Union-Tribune article. Interesting reading. And now I'll note that at no time did you claim this was any kind of vessel. LOL

What a grand place! I love all the ornate balconies!

I love it. Was there really someone named Rueben E. Lee?

OMG! I was wondering what happened to that vessel. Since as young as I can remember it was docked and used as a restaurant in the Newport Harbor, visible from PCH. Then one day I drove by and it was gone. I'm glad it found a good home.

Nice angle on this, almost looks like a real boat. There has been talk of restoring this for years.

Nice composition, Robin. B&W makes it look like an old photo.
