Little Texas Aggie Bear said, “Someone should write a book titled, “Captains and Little Bears Courageous.”
I woke up extra, extra early this morning. It was 10:30 a.m. Normally, I only see 10:30 on the clock once a day. The ferryboat company here along the Jersey Shore, SeaStreak, LLC received a new ferryboat this last week. It is the largest high-speed passenger catamaran in operation in the United States.
The nice people at SeaStreak conducted an “open ship” or is it “open boat?” at noon today so the public could view this remarkable piece of technology. They even provided free doughnuts and cocktails!!! The boat was built starting in 2019 at Midship Marine in Harvey, Louisiana.
The owners decided to name the new boat, “Courageous” as a tribute to first responders and individuals who worked in the medical field and continued to take other SeaStreak boats into Manhattan during the pandemic. A local media outlet stated that the boat is valued at ~$18M. It has two bars — one inside on the first deck, and another “summer” bar behind the wheelhouse on the third deck.
The outside portion of the boat has red, white, and blue LED lighting. I suspect it will look spectacular when it’s coming back from West Point next summer at night after the home football games. The boat hosts 720 passengers. Many of the seats have tables so families can play games on a long trip. There are also several cocktail tables near the inside bar area where the cool people can enjoy an adult beverage.
My favorite part of the “open boat” event was that we were able to go into the wheelhouse and see all of the technology used in a modern boat of this size. Especially the captain’s chair where he sits when he tells his first officer and navigator to engage the warp drive!
