Point Reyes Lifeboat Station
Point Reyes Lifeboat Station, Maritime rescue station in Inverness, United States
The lifeboat complex includes a main building, boathouse, and pier extending into the waters of Drakes Bay along the Pacific coast.
Built in 1936, this station protected vessels from hazards near Point Reyes Peninsula, where dense fog and strong currents created dangerous conditions.
The station represents maritime safety heritage and rescue operations through preserved equipment, boats, and documents from early 20th century California coast.
The facility maintains its original launch rails, marine railway system, and boat maintenance equipment dating from the 1930s construction period.
This station remains the last surviving example of Pacific Coast marine railways used to launch rescue boats directly into ocean waters.
