    This former Coast Guard cutter became the presidential yacht of Franklin D. Roosevelt. It was specially fitted out for his special needs (due to having had polio). Guided dockside tours are offered on Wednesday, Friday, and Sunday. From April through October, she takes excusions out on San Franciso Bay.
