The first time I stopped by looking for the Dreamboats I was distracted by the cornerstones that are in the same area. It wasn't until I went back for a second look that I spotted them. Part of the difficulty is that they southern one also serves as a bus shelter and a trellis. Both boats are raised about 10 feet above the level of the sidewalk, and both are upside down. (So they don't collect water.) Each is shaped like a canoe, yet each sports several paddles. (I count 7 on the northern boat, but only 6 on the southern one. It appears that one may have been broken off.)
The boats appear to be made of a fiberclass-type material, though it could be some tyope of plastic. There are also several overlapping designs on the interior of the boats, as well as some text.
The posted coordinates are for the northern boat. I had difficulty getting good readings at the souther boat, but these should be decent coordintes: N47 38.308 W122 19.545
