MV Taku to provide berthing for rededication

The MV Taku will be available as a hotel ship in Wrangell for the Chief Shakes Tribal House rededication event set for May 2-4.

The ferry will arrive at the city dock in Wrangell midday on Thursday, May 2 and will be available to provide nightly accommodations starting at 4:00pm.

The vessel will depart Wrangell on Sunday, May 5, and checkout will be required by 11:00 a.m.

No food or beverage service will be available on the vessel and the service schedule of the Taku will be held in a restricted status within the AMHS reservations system so the public will not be able to access it online.

The Taku will have a total of 40 cabins available with 15 two-berth full amenity cabins, 17 two-berth interior cabins, two two-berth handicap cabins, and six cabins that are four-berth with full amenities.

In order to make reservations for a cabin, visitors should call or email Shannon Wiley directly, at 907-465-8809 or dot.amhs.customer@alaska.gov.
