\"\"<\/a>This is the Showboat Majestic<\/em>‘s fifth appearance in this blog. The first (Majestic Still<\/a>) was in 2013 when I attended one of Cincinnati Landmark Productions’ final round of performances aboard her. The second and third (Much Miscellany<\/a> and On the Waterfront<\/a>) both involved Cincinnati Film Festival events onboard the otherwise idled boat in 2015. In the spring of 2019, she departed Cincinnati’s public landing after being sold to Moyer Winery near Manchester, Ohio. I spotted her at her new location when I was on the way home from somewhere else (Portsmouth Road Meet)<\/a> and snapped a picture. That was in May and a month later the winery burned to the ground. The thriving business that the floating theater had been purchased to augment was no more.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/a>On Wednesday the 17th, the Majestic<\/em> moved to the town of New Richmond where she will stay for at least ten years. There’s a good report, including video, of the arrival here<\/a>. There is currently no schedule for events involving the boat, and work remains to get her comfortable and accessible, but there is no doubt she will be a very nice addition to an already attractive town.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>New Richmond is much closer to me than Manchester. It is home to the world’s only cardboard boat museum<\/a> and annual cardboard boat race. It’s a place I get to fairly often in the summer and occasionally in the winter. I headed there last Sunday to get some pictures of the new arrival and eat breakfast at the Front Street Cafe<\/a>. Then I headed upriver to cross at Maysville, head back toward home on the Kentucky side, and grab this picture on the way.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
