Wisconsin’s very own Burger Boat Co. has begun work on a new passenger vessel for Chicago’s First Lady Cruises. Chicago’s Emerald Lady, a 98-foot steel vessel, will serve 250 passengers and is designed by Mark Pudlo, principal at Seacraft Design in Sturgeon Bay, Wisconsin.

This will be the third passenger vessel Burger has built for Chicago’s First Lady Cruises, following Chicago’s Classic Lady and Chicago’s Leading Lady, and will launch in the spring of 2020.

“At Burger, we’re dedicated to bringing our customer’s vision to reality and creating an experience on the water,” says Jim Ruffolo, president and CEO, Burger Boat Co. “We love building for Chicago’s First Lady Cruises, as they share our mission of building a memorable, unique experience.”
