Its Not Just Rochester Anymore
A new ferry service is set to begin June 1, 2004 on Lake Michigan. The catamaran will haul passengers and vehicles between Milwaukee, Wisconsin and Muskegon, Michigan. The idea is to allow people travelling to Wisconsin a way to avoid the ever-worsening Chicago traffic.
The catamaran will travel at speeds around 40 miles per hour and carry up to 253 passengers and 46 vehicles. The trip is expected to take about 2 hours and 20 minutes.
The trip - not accounting for traffic -- would take almost five hours by car.
More information on the ferry service is available on Lake Express LLC's website.
