Wow! I knew I came to the right place even if it is off topic. What I'm really after is a roster of the names of the boats which operated between Richmond and San Quenton from the middle forties to the end of service on which I was a passenger on many occasions. The names I can recall are: Sierra Nevada, Russian River, Klamath, Eureka and El Paso. The ones that are fuzzy (57 to 67 years ago) are Berkley, Sausalito and Ukiah. Some of the boats were ex. SP, Santa Fe and WP. Some were directly owned and some were leased when one or two of their own were laid up for repairs.
Thanks again for your participation and thanks to all the train folks for your patience in putting up with an old mans musings on a subject not directly related to trains even if they were steam powered.
