The Pat II was built in 1924 and spent decades as a USPS mail delivery vessel on Keuka Lake, servicing the waterfront communities along both arms. The Finger Lakes Boating Museum acquired and restored the boat, converting it to electric propulsion. Guided tours depart from Depot Park in Hammondsport, covering the south basin and the entry to both arms with narration on the lake’s winemaking, aviation, and industrial history. Tours run seasonally; advance booking recommended. Captain JC provides narration grounded in deep local knowledge.
