Viking Octantis, a $255 million cruise ship that can hold up to 375 passengers, has become a familiar sight in Wisconsin ports like Green Bay, Milwaukee and Algoma.

    I can’t decide how I feel about these stupid things. On one hand, they’re a limited time deal - all the boomers they ferry around will be dead in 20 years. But in the meantime, I really don’t think the lakes need any more people on them.

    Ngl, the cutting edge viking ships look super cool! See them all the time in milwaukee.

    Unfortunately, theyre obscenely expensive… like minimum 6000 for their shortest great lakes cruise. The ships only hold like 300 people

    Wait what the fuck. Are they putting these things in the Great Lakes now?

    I guess that’s better than having them out in the ocean, actually they might be onto something.
