50th anniversary of first ferry crossing


CAPE MAY – Next week will mark the 50th anniversary of the first trial crossing of the Delaware River by the Cape May-Lewes Ferry.

A ferry crossed from Lewes, Del. And docked at the U.S. Coast Guard base in Cape May on Oct. 17, 1962. The crossing was a trial run but thousands of people from Delaware boarded the vessel for the occasion.
