The CG36500 is still in the water and docked at Rock Harbor. “Built in 1946, it is notable for its involvement in the 1952 SS Pendleton rescue, one of the most daring such events recorded in the history of the United States Coast Guard . It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2005, and now serves as a museum boat.”
What a wonderful boat and a truly inspiring story! I’m sure it’s almost time to move this famous boat to its “winter home.”
Today is the last day this fall to park in the parking lot by Young’s Seafood at Rock Harbor and get this beautiful view. The work for changing how the boats will dock there and adding new slips starts this week and should take quite a while.
You can see the fishing boats that were previously docked by Young’s are now using the slips on the other side. They all look like they are “ready to go!”
I couldn’t decide which photo I liked better… what do you think?
