Maine adds $10M ferry to state's fleet
Maine — With a splash of champagne, the Maine Department of Transportation on Friday welcomed into service the state's first new ferry in nearly 20 years. The Capt. E. Frank Thompson, named after a former longtime ferry skipper, was christened at the Rockland Ferry Terminal by his daughter, Than Hopkins, who broke a bottle of champagne on the ship's bow. The ferry, which will begin regular runs Saturday, cost nearly $10 million, about half of which was funded through federal stimulus money. http://www.seacoastonline.com/articles/20120421-NEWS-204210318
