California's Gold with Huell Howser
Newport Boats
Season 10
Episode 1009
Huell visits Newport Beach to learn about two “boats” that are very historic. Family owned since 1919, the Balboa Island Ferry has provided continuous service between Balboa Island and Balboa Peninsula. Crossings just 0.25 miles, this Newport tradition is not only a wonderful tourist attraction, but also a service the locals cherish.
