The Alice was a tugboat built in 1897 in San Francisco, California. Originally named the C.G. White, it was later renamed Alice after being sold to a new owner. The tugboat was primarily used for towing lumber schooners along the West Coast of the United States. During its service, the Alice was involved in various incidents, including collisions and groundings. In 1945, the tugboat was decommissioned and laid up in Oakland, California. Eventually, it was acquired by the National Park Service and restored to its original appearance. The Alice is now part of the San Francisco Maritime National Historical Park's collection and is on display as a historic vessel.
