🚢 Master Salute Moment! 🚢 During our sold-out 2025 Fall Boatnerd Cruise, we had the honor of trading a Master Salute with the Sugar Island Ferry — a heartfelt tradition between captains that never gets old! Sugar Island, just a short ferry ride from downtown Sault Ste. Marie, is home to around 600 year-round residents and a rich maritime history. The ferry itself is a lifeline for the island, operating year-round and connecting this peaceful, wooded retreat to the mainland. Many of our guests

Here’s another video from the Harbor aboard the Boatnerd cruise this past Saturday with the Original Soo Locks Boat Tours… We cruised up alongside the John G Munson for awhile and Captain Norris our Cruise Captain for the afternoon, was able to secure us a spot up in front of the Munson in the Poe Lock so we got to lock through with them! What a treat to have such a stunning vessel behind us in the Poe Lock… I loved it! Best part of this video is when we reach the forward end of the ship and the

Ever wonder what it's like to take a ride on one of the Soo Locks Tour Boats? Well here you go... Follower Michael Camp was here and decided to hop on the Famous Soo Locks Boat Tours and as luck would have it the amazing Edwin H Gott was in town! Here's how close you get to the ships when they are here! And they even got a return salute and a wave from what looks like Captain Weekley or Alfson... or maybe one of the Mates lol!!

Yesterday I had the pleasure of going on the Boatnerd Cruise with the Original Soo Locks Boat Tours and we had a great time! I of course forgot my big camera at home but I was busy at my table talking to people and selling products so my opportunities to shoot were limited.. it was a busy night and plenty of ships to see… Captain Seward is a Boatnerd himself so he really knew exactly where to go and what angles to position the boat in for some great shots… While I didn’t get to do much I did gra

Loved being able to see the M/V Joseph L. Block “sail off into the sunset” last night while on the Boatnerd Cruise with the Original Soo Locks Boat Tours! It was a fabulous final boat catch of the night as we made our way to the MacArthur Lock to lock through and head back to the tour boat’s dock The Block was headed for Marquette to load ore and as I type this they are just pulling away from the dock loaded and bound for Toledo so we will see them early tomorrow morning ing which is great.. may

Another Look: Here is a different look at the Soo Locks first ship last Friday in a time-lapse video taken from the Poe Lock miter gate. In the video, the Joseph L.

Well I made it to Sault Ste Marie, MI for the Boatnerd Cruise with the Original Soo Locks Boat Tours and as luck would have it, just as I crossed over, the CSL Welland was pulling away from the locks! They passed by the moored Mesabi Miner at West Pier and I was there to get this windy video for you lol… After this I have to grab my things and head over to the dock! Looking forward to being out on the water again! It’s windy and a bit chilly but hopefully we’ll see at least a couple of ships whi
