About the Salem Ferry

“Only a broom will get you there faster. Carrying 149 passengers and cruising at up to 33 knots—the vessel Nathaniel Bowditch allows you to spend less time getting to Salem and more time exploring there. The vessel is 92 feet long and features two decks, with booth seating inside, plus a galley and three restrooms. The second deck includes a partially enclosed space with benches and tables as well as a large open-air space for soaking up the summer sun.” [Source]
