For most people, the trip to Bois Blanc Island begins and ends with a trip on the "Kristen D." The "Kristen D." is a car and passenger ferry, owned and operated by Plaunt Transportation in Cheboygan Michigan. Plaunt Transportation has been serving the transportation needs of Bois Blanc Island since 1932 when it was started by Charles Plaunt and continues to be a family owned and operated company. The Kristen D. is 95' long and 36' long. Departure is from the Plaunt Transportation dock in Cheboygan, MI and the trip to the island is an enjoyable forty-five minute ride. It is extremely important to arrive at least twenty minutes prior to departure to and from the island as it takes time to load vehicles on the boat. Plaunt Transportation crew drive all vehicles onto the boat as it is typically a tight fit. Vehicle owners then comfortably drive off the boat under the guidance of the crew. Be certain to make your ferry reservation well in advance as the boat frequently fills up as far as two weeks in advance. When possible, additional trips are added to the schedule, but it is very unwise to count on that. Tickets for vehicles and passengers are available in the office which has its entrance at the road.
