that "tiny space" (superior entry) is wider than the duluth entry

Just checked the meet and greet section. There is a 4 day cruise leaving Miami in October.
The girls are high end, wow! Sounds like an adventure!

Port security is quite high these days, and this is the sort of thing that would attract a lot of attention.  I'd be surprised if they could keep the purpose of this cruise under wraps.

You can argue that what happens at sea shouldn't be in the bounds of US Jurisdiction, but that hasn't stopped them from detaining people for visiting resorts that specialize in this sort of thing.  Last thing you want is to show up on some watchlist.

But, don't let me scare you off... Just my opinion.

The cruise is a small part of a larger line so I be shocked if anyone was on a watch list
just for going on a cruise.

FYI, the fitzgerald and its final voyage has nothing to do with duluth. It loaded and departed superior wi on its way to detroit.

But it was last in Duluth when it left the Duluth Harbor Basin under the high bridge...

the "high bridge", now known as the blatnik bridge is an interstate bridge. the fitzgerald passed through the superior entry, not the duluth basin which would have brought it under the aerial lift bridge.
perhaps you are confusing the aerial lift bridge and the high bridge.

ok, here is a couple of maps at the point it was loaded...scroll down....

I did not know they could sail in and out of that tiny space between sand bar isthmus's (south end of Duluth)
between Minnesota and Wisconsin.  After looking at the map closely, it would have just scraped Wisconsin
as it turned Northeastward back into Minnesota
