Weather Delays for the AMHS


Editor’s Note:  The Kennicott was scheduled to be in Seldovia on Friday (12/13) morning at 7:00am, but due to these delays, it is not expected to make it to Seldovia until Friday evening – perhaps around 7:00pm.  Please plan accordingly, and call to confirm the progress of the vessel.  Here is a link to the site where you can see the actual location of every AMHS ferry in the state – a very handy tool!
