History of the Portage Princess Tour Boat The Portage Princess Tour Boat has been cruising the scenic Portage Lakes for over 25 years with Captain John Roessner at its helm. Captain John's vision is to provide a safe way for individuals and groups to enjoy the boating experience sharing the natural beauty that abounds on the Portage Lakes without all the hassles of owning a boat. Your group can simply arrive on the dock and allow Captain John will do all the work! The cruises can be narrated providing a brief history of the lakes.
