Found this old news article and photo about the anchor that was placed outside the original Trader Vic's on Ward Drive. It came from the San Francisco Bay.

Vic's partner Granville Abbott (standing next to the anchor) incorporated the Trader Vic's name in Hawaii and bought Vic out in 1941. Here are dueling newspaper announcements from May of 1941.
