Good questions, all.
The ferry is a relaxing 4 hour trip across Lake Michigan.  The boat is 410
feet in length and 7 stories high.  It accommodates 620 passengers and 180
or so vehicles.  On June 11th there are two departure times from which to
choose; the recommendation will be to take the 1:15 pm cruise.  Reservations
are essential for our group and may be made online.  For details, see
http://www.ssbadger.com/home.asp .  For video clips, see

Dick.
