SS Badger is a passenger and vehicle ferry in the United States that has been in service on Lake Michigan since 1953. Currently, the ship shuttles between Ludington, Michigan, and Manitowoc, Wisconsin, a distance of 62 miles (100 km), connecting U.S. Highway 10 (US 10) between those two cities.
Rather than losing the only ferry in service (the Badger had been laid-up in 1984), M-WT opted to refurbish the Badger, and in 1988 the City of Midland 41 made her last voyage in November of that year. She was laid-up in Ludington's No. 2 1 ⁄ 2 slip. She sat rusting in the harbor for nine years before her fate was decided.
