Wharf near foot of 3rd St.
<p>Boy Scout boat "Zachary Taylor II" (Sea Explorer Ship 180)
I assume the boat was named for U.S. President <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zachary_Taylor" class="extiw" title="w:Zachary Taylor">Zachary Taylor</a> (1784 -- 1850), who is buried in the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zachary_Taylor_National_Cemetery" class="extiw" title="w:Zachary Taylor National Cemetery">Zachary Taylor National Cemetery</a> at 4701 Brownsboro Road, Louisville.
According to a 2000 story in Business First, this 65-foot boat had been a Scout boat since 1947.
The local <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://www.scouting.org/programs/sea-scouts/">Sea Explorer</a> post was funded in part by renting the boat to companies, churches and individuals for weddings, private parties, and cruises.
I think it was taken out of service sometime in the 2000's.
