New cruise ship set to sail the Great Lakes this summer

New cruise ship set to sail the Great Lakes this summer – Cottage Life:
"This summer, a new vessel will be sailing the Great Lakes waters.
A luxury cruise ship named the Saint Laurent will embark this July from Montreal to Chicago, hitting up several cottage country destinations along the way.
Saint Laurent cruise shipVisiting all five of the Great Lakes, the Saint Laurent cruise is an ideal trip for limnology experts, locks enthusiasts, and lovers of Canadian history.
Specially designed to sail the Great Lakes, the Saint Laurent’s smaller size means it can travel to smaller ports than many other luxury cruise ships.
For its maiden voyage, the ship will embark from Montreal and sail via the St. Lawrence Seaway and Lake Ontario through to the historical Welland Canal, which was first built in 1824.
After a viewing of Niagara Falls, the ship will then travel from Lake Erie to Lake Huron, with a stop in Windsor and Detroit. The ship then sails through Lake Huron up to the cottage country of Georgian Bay."
