JACK'S HAPPENINGS
Private Charters begin May 1st!
Sightseeing Tours begin June 7th!
Sailing season is quickly approaching and we're kicking off with a fun and exciting group of students! Our first private charter ride of 2018 is scheduled the morning of May 2nd for a school field trip where young explorers will get a chance to cruise the Detroit River and learn about its rich history. We'll then welcome a group of seniors later that day for a relaxing, breezy afternoon. We have another private charter scheduled on May 4th for a rehearsal dinner. If you haven't booked your private charter boat yet for an upcoming special occasion, we still have dates available through October 31st! Give your friends and family an experience like no other!
We have been hard at work making improvements on our boats throughout the off-season to make sure they are in top shape for our passengers! The Diamond Queen has been revamped with a new ceiling and new carpeting. New carpeting for The Diamond Belle, which will be the first boat out this year, is still underway. The weather needs to be 60° for three consecutive days in order to begin installing the carpet and we have our fingers crossed to start April 25th! The Diamond Jack is scheduled for dry dock repairs at Nicholson Terminal & Dock Company in Ecorse as soon as the weather warms up. We also have a new gangway at our Rivard dock that you'll see when climbing aboard! The cold weather has been relentless this year, but warmer weather is on the way and we're thrilled to have you come on board and enjoy all the new updates including WiFi on all three boats!
This year, be sure to listen for the mysterious Windsor Hum as you sail with us on a sightseeing tour! Our Canadian neighbors across the Detroit River have reported hearing a strange rumbling sound that scientists have not been able to explain. The noise experienced by Windsor residents has been unpredictable, each instance differing in timing, duration and intensity. Watch a video featured on The New York Times of one resident's experience. A professor at the University of Windsor has described trying to find an answer to the Windsor Hum "like chasing a ghost". Our sightseeing tours will cruise right into the inexplicable Windsor Hum. Will you hear it? Join us starting June 7, 2018 to listen for yourself!
