There was a large turnout Saturday afternoon inside the main building at the Burger Boat Company in Manitowoc to witness the christening of the NEEBISH ISLANDER III.
The 92-foot ice-breaker vehicle and passenger ferry will be used year-round on the St. Mary’s River between Barbeau, Michigan to Neebish Island in the eastern Upper Peninsula.
An Open House and tours preceded the christening ceremony of the latest commercial vessel at Burger Boat, which was founded in 1863.
