Could it be one of the old ferries just below Mission?

Or was it the old gold dredge that was up by Laidlaw in the side stream?

If it's the old ferry just below Mission it's got some neat history. It was a WA state vessel and I think it served in the SF bay prior to that.

It's a shame to see it go to watse.
