This particular houseboat was the second-last to depart Redwood City and finally arrived at its new home at the Commodore Marina in Sausalito.
A two-storey houseboat that captivated onlookers for days with its resemblance to Pixar's "Up" has finally reached its new destination. The wood-shingled house, built on a floating barge, has been spotted drifting around San Francisco Bay since Sunday. House is now at the Bay Bridge https://t.co/tbsHBdum7Zpic.twitter.com/eT1hU0TX14
The US Coast Guard confirmed they were monitoring the private relocation of the houseboat, which originated from the Redwood City marina. Evictions forced by lawsuits from nearby residents had dwindled the marina's once vibrant houseboat community of over 100 residents.
This particular houseboat was the second-last to depart Redwood City and finally arrived at its new home at the Commodore Marina in Sausalito on Tuesday. The slow trek across the bay took longer than expected due to tidal and weather conditions, according to Sausalito resident Phil Hott.
