GLIA member Neebish Island up in the St. Mary’s River is having trouble with their ferry service. The ferry captain has canceled the last three trips according to a report from 9&10 News. The captain said he couldn’t get deck hands for the trip because of weather, but islanders don’t buy that story because the weather hasn’t been that bad. The Eastern U.P. Transportation Authority, which operates the Neebish ferry is looking into the matter and went into closed session at a special meeting to discuss contract issues with the captain. 9&10 News’ story about the problem is available at this link.
