Apostle Islands Cruises

June newsletter is here! ☀️🚢

The ABX is officially cruising to Stockton, Michigan, Oak, Raspberry, AND Manitou Island! We couldn’t be more excited for another amazing month out on the water. 🌊💙

This month’s crew spotlight is on myself 😉
— Assistant Manager Courtney Lucius!

The crew was kind enough to write some incredibly thoughtful things about me, and I’m so thankful to work alongside such an amazing team. Captain Dave Thoen had a sweet message that wasn’t able to make it into the newsletter, so I wanted to share it here:

“Courtney is the kind of person who makes it a pleasure to come to work. She’s quick with a smile and always has something encouraging to say. She has confidence and abilities well beyond her years. I’m thrilled to work with her and proud to call her a friend.”

It’s the incredible employees and amazing customers that make me proud to call AIC home. Thank you all for your continued support — it truly means the world to us! 💙

Would we recommend cruising through the Apostle Islands with us? Absolutely 🌊✨

Crystal clear water, breathtaking island views, historic lighthouses, and the sea caves at Devils Island that almost don’t look real 🛶💙

But what truly makes the trip unforgettable is the experience onboard — a welcoming crew that makes every passenger feel at home, and the stories, laughter, and memories shared along the way that last a lifetime.

It’s more than just a boat tour… it’s a moment you’ll wish you could relive all over again ☀️

Good views, good vibes, and memories you’ll be talking about all summer!

PS: Devils Island is absolutely GORGEOUS right now. The ice is still hanging on around the island, and it’s something you don’t want to miss. Hop on the boat before it’s gone! 🌊🛥️
