Took the Badger across Lake Mich. in 2005. Took my gooseneck trailer with a 2 bangor Eagle tractor on it and a golf cart. They charge by length and width. If your trailer is 8.5 ft. wide like mine is, then you pay more. I hated the thought of going through Chicago with the load. It probably will be the only cruise I go in my life time. It took 4 hrs. to get across and was a fun ride. They didn't let you get down and look at the steam engines that power it, they loaded 3 semi loads of coal into it before we left Wisc. which was enough for the round trip. You park your vehicle in the parking lot and they back it in and drive it off for you. They haul semi's, tour buses, motor homes, etc, quite a load. Also they charge so much per person, if I remember, it cost me around $400 round trip.
