Named after the Wisconsin Badgers, the athletic teams representing the University of Wisconsin, S.S. Badger is the largest car and passenger ferry to sail the Great Lakes. It runs daily from mid-May to mid-October from its home port Ludington to Manitowoc, Wisconsin. The 410-foot ship can accommodate 600 passengers and 180 different types of vehicles. The onboard entertainment options are a mix of fun and reminiscent of its maritime heritage. You can play Badger Bingo, watch movies, or have a meal in any of the two restaurants. When it arrives at the port, watching it from the North Breakwater Lighthouse on the backdrop of a beautiful sunset is a favorite local pastime.
