In August 2007, the Beaver Island Boat Company operated a day trip to Mackinaw City. A participant reported more than 50 passengers and described optional shore excursions, including a shuttle to Kewadin Casino and visits to Mackinac Island.
Evidence limits
This is a firsthand participant account and does not substitute for a company manifest, ticket record, or formal itinerary. The June announcement documents the plan and its conditional passenger threshold; the August 6 participant account is the stronger forum evidence that the excursion actually occurred.

- The Boat Company announcement planned a weather-dependent August 5 excursion, with $50 advance/$60 dock tickets, a 7:00 a.m. Beaver Island departure, and a 5:30 p.m. return. Later replies say tickets were still available and that the trip depended on reaching a passenger count; this is planned-service evidence, not proof by itself that the trip sailed.forum · www.beaverislandforum.com · 00 · t000899
