South End Sara

We haven't seen South End Sara rolling down the street yet – but she's out there somewhere. Mayor Menino was the dignitary on hand to christen the rainbow adorned duck boat. This short and shaky video certainly isn't of the best quality, though it's proof positive that Menino was there, even if his bottle breaking proficiency needs polishing. Sara sailed for the Youth Pride march in mid-May and sailed again as part of the Pride Parade Saturday. Voices Rising, a Boston-based women's chorus rode the duck as part of the parade. There's video of the Pride Idol up on YouTube as well, tracking down video footage of QueerToday's protest outside of Macy's on Sunday is proving to be a difficult task.

  • Me too, me too! I saw S.E.S. plying the Charles yesterday afternoon on my way home from work and wondered what was up with such a weird-looking duck boat.

    I saw "South End Sara" yesterday, sailing down Boylston Street and also wondered why I hadn't seen it in the past.

    Ah! That explains it. I saw the new Duck Boat on Sunday afternoon as I was riding the Green Line to Lechmere. It was in the water near where the Duck Boats enter the Charles. At the time I thought, "Gee, that must be new," since I didn't remember seeing it before.
