The City of Manitowoc is welcoming the public to attend as the S.S. Badger Lake Michigan Car Ferry makes its 2019 Maiden Voyage. The car ferry is expected to arrive between 11:45 a.m. and 12:15 p.m. at the car ferry dock on Friday, May 10th. The dock is located at 900 South Lakeview Drive in Manitowoc.
The 2019 Sailing Season will be the first since the new dock and wall were constructed. Construction was made necessary due to damage caused by Winter Storm Evelyn in April 2018.
The 410 foot S.S. Badger makes nearly 450 crossings each season with approximately 1,500 commercial vehicles and 100,000 passengers and employs more than 200 people.
