MV Kennicott part 2

While at times it was frustrating to get information while aboard the ferry, there were many informative displays throughout the ship, such as the native artifacts seen above, and the live nautical map seen below. I found that the more I looked, the more I learned. In some cases it was necessary to pick the brains of the purser and our fellow passengers. Geographically, the Inside Passage is a matrix with thousands of islands. One good thing about the ferry is that it can go through the narrower channels closer to the mainland, whereas the big cruise ships tend to take the open sea, which is faster but rockier.
