MrFSS Posted April 27, 2007 #1 Share Posted April 27, 2007 I received an itinerary for our Sept cruise in New England and Canada, leaving from NYC. It says we tender in Boston. I thought they had a nice cruise ship terminal there. Do ships just visiting tender or use the terminal? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smeyer418 Posted April 27, 2007 #2 Share Posted April 27, 2007 there are multiple cruise docks in Boston. I always have docked....I think its a misprint. Bar Harbor and Newport are tender ports but Boston rarely, if ever is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruizinwithkids Posted April 27, 2007 #4 Share Posted April 27, 2007 I read one time about a cruise ship tendering (is that a verb?) in Gloucester, Massachusetts. It was in a local paper. I am in Massachusetts but not near the ocean. Gloucester is north of Boston, but maybe (?) close enough to be considered a Boston port. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
discjoker Posted April 27, 2007 #5 Share Posted April 27, 2007 As you can see in the picture below, there are four ships docked at the cruise terminal in Boston. So, we know at least four can dock at a time. According to Massport's website, the Veendam is the only cruise ship in port on 9/11/07 (the day your ship gets into Boston) so I am thinking it is a misprint on your itinerary.

That's what I thought, too. As we get closer to the sailing I'll check with HAL and see what they have to say. Thanks for the reply. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow, I'm from Boston and didn't know that we could handle four cruise ships at once! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Smellytoes Posted April 28, 2007 #9 Share Posted April 28, 2007 I'm in Quincy and you can see the pier area up the street from my house. I love it in the fall when we have a bunch of ships docked. My DD and I try to guess which ship is which. It really is a pretty sight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
