| From the Buffalo News. "After plying the waters of the Niagara River and Lake Erie for nearly 20 years, the Niagara Clipper cruise ship is on its way to Florida. Buffalo Charters Inc., which has operated the 275-passenger boat since the late 1980s, sold the vessel to Expoships LLLP, which plans to use it as part of a "floating art and antique gallery" venture. The Niagara Clipper, which has served as a venue for hundreds of wedding receptions, corporate parties and other celebrations, sailed off to its new home Wednesday. When the Niagara Clipper completes its nearly month-long journey to Florida, it will get a complete overhaul. The boat will be converted to a floating home for staff of the luxury yacht "Grand Luxe." The Niagara Clipper, to be renamed the Expo Clipper, will accompany the Grand Luxe, housing its staff in 45 state rooms." |
