Evansville, IN – August 31, 2022 – Visit Evansville and American Cruise Lines have announced that the American Heritage will return to Evansville for four additional stops through the Fall of 2022.  The American Heritage, a classic newly renovated paddlewheeler carrying 150 passengers, will moor at the dock formerly occupied by the LST 325 at Marina Pointe on the following dates:   

 Members of the community are invited to Marina Pointe to view the riverboat and welcome passengers, but tours of the American Heritage will not be available. 

 “We are excited to welcome the American Heritage and American Cruise Lines back to Evansville.  As we look to reactivate these activities from our bend in the Ohio River, this is a first, important step.  In addition to these tremendous cruise opportunities, we continue to work towards attracting a riverboat to Evansville full time that can accommodate our local community and visitors alike,” said Alexis Berggren, President & CEO of Visit Evansville.
