WHITE SMOKE is mahogany elegance afloat, built in 1930 for George A. Pope, Sr. for use at his summer hideaway on Tahoe’s south shore. Pope’s 30-foot Sea Lyon Model 45 triple-cockpit runabout was the product of Howard W. Lyon Incorporated and was, from the moment of her delivery (and for more than half a century thereafter), the only representative of her make on Lake Tahoe.
