Your Ship
American Song
The first modern American riverboat, and the ship the whole current series is descended from
Aboard
- The first of the modern riverboat series, delivered in 2018, the first contemporary riverboat built in the United States
- 180 guests, every stateroom with a private balcony
- A four-story glass atrium with a domed skylight, and lounges forty feet above the water
- Azimuth thrusters fore and aft in place of conventional shafts and rudders
- A hydraulic bow ramp that lets her land passengers on a bare riverbank
- Eight-night Columbia and Snake River runs, Portland to Clarkston, all season long
- No short version: the shortest thing she sells is eight nights

- Typical Length
- 7 to 15 nights
