Hornblower Cruises hopes to persuade Maid of the Mist operator to exit

From the Buffalo News:

When a San Francisco company begins operating boat tours in Niagara Falls, Ont., in 2014, it won’t be with the iconic Maid of the Mist name.

And if Hornblower Cruises & Events gets its way, it will be the only tour boat operator in the Niagara Gorge.

“We’re not anxious to share space,” Hornblower chief executive Terry MacRae said Monday. “I think when we all meet [with Maid of the Mist officials] and discuss, they’ll find out it’s great timing to exit, and we’ll do our best to help that happen gracefully.”
