Actually, the tugboat hasn't been there all that long. I reckon around 20 years, maybe less. The restaurant used to be the Bourne Mill years ago, then when Grandma's went up, they brought in the tugboat as a novelty ice cream stand. You used to get served in what was the galley, and you could walk thru the pilot house and then stand in the bow.
Penner's won't be re-opening anytime soon--if and when the insurance pays off, the owner has a, shall we say, more pressing need for the settlement than re-opening a restaurant he unsuccessfully tried to peddle before that very unfortunate incident involving a match, some acellerant, and a disabled hydrant in front of the building.
