Since my last two posts were about trains, I thought I would keep with the transportation theme for this post.

One of the neat things about exploring one's own community is that one never knows what one might find in those little nooks and crannies. My recent drive from Imperial Beach to downtown San Diego along the railroad tracks, beachside parks, and military piers brought me to the following ship. I have no idea what it's used for, but it reminded me of something out of "Star Trek for Boats." Anyone know anything about it?
