Petersen Rock Garden – Swan boat (March 2021)

I could find only two photos on the internet of this boat in operation–both appeared to be from the 1960s or early 1970s. Maybe this beauty had been dry docked for 50 years when I took the photo almost five years ago. Actually the wood and paint are much newer than that so maybe it had been repurposed in the fairly recent past. I don’t think the ponds/lagoon had water for about a decade until new owners took over in 2023. I haven’t been back to see the improvements.
