swan boats
Graceful park vessels
Swan boats are small pedal-powered boats shaped like swans, typically found in public parks for leisurely rides on ponds or lakes.
The operator sits behind a large decorative swan figure and pedals to propel the craft.
The swan boats in Boston's Public Garden, operating since 1877, are the most famous example in the United States.
