The last Sikorsky VS-44, Excambian, now preserved in the New England Air Museum (Windsor Locks, CT), flew short tourist hops from Long Beach, California, to Santa Catalina Island during the 1960s. A quay in Long Beach Harbor was used. The former Municipal Auditorium is in the background on the left.
