Perhaps someone could volunteer to dive below and fix the steering? MACKINAW CITY, MI — The U.S. Coast Guard is aiding a Mackinac Island ferry that experienced mechanical problems and went adrift with passengers aboard Tuesday evening. The Huron, a winter service ferry owned by Star Line, lost steering about 6 p.m. on Tuesday, April 5, while en route to the island, according to the Coast Guard. The vessel is drifting slowly with the current east of the Mackinac Bridge in heavy fog. It’s not in danger of grounding, said Chief Petty Officer John Masson, a public information officer with the Great Lakes district.
Looks like the passengers are off it thankfully. What are "the straights" it is/was drifting in? Arnold Freight Ferry Rescues Passengers After Star Line Ferry Goes Adrift - 9 & 10 News
It was the Straits of Mackinaw. Not straight. Between Mackinaw City and St Ignace, MI. The area where Lakes Michigan and Huron meet.
