This was in my local newspaper today:

The Great Lakes cruising season begins in June and extends to mid-October. There will be more than 70 voyages, from two nights to 15, aboard seven ships operated by eight companies.

Among the sailings is an eight night outing that takes in all five lakes. Departing Chicago on June 18, the LeLevant cruises through or stops at North Channel, Mackinac Island and the Welland Canal, ending the tour at Toronto.

Another cruise, of the Columbus, departs Toronto on Sept 4 and crosses lakes Ontario, Erie, and Michigan before ending at Port Huron, Michigan.

A 15-nighter from Chicago on June 2 on the Niagara Prince proceeds through lakes Michigan, Huron, Erie and Ontario, the Erie Canal, the Hudson River and Long Island Sound before tying up at Warren R.I.

There's also a six-nighter outing on the "Sixth Lake" - Georgian Bay, off Lake Huron - aboard the Georgian Clipper, with departures June 16 to August 28.
