Authentic PaddlewheelerThe Belle of Cincinnati, an excursion riverboat and flagship of the BB Riverboats fleet, calls the Port of Cincinnati home. This excursion boat was formerly known as the Emerald Lady and used as a casino boat out of Iowa and then Mississippi in the early 1990s. In 1998 BB Riverboats bought the Emerald Lady and in 1999 they began restoration while docked in New Orleans. When the restoration was complete, the newly named Belle of Cincinnati towed the World Peace Bell (currently on display in Newport, KY) to Cincinnati. The Belle of Cincinnati officially began operating on the Ohio River in Cincinnati on August 6, 1999.
This impressive boat boasts a total of 4 decks, which includes 4 dining rooms, dance floors, an open-air deck, and room for up to 1,000 guests. The Belle of Cincinnati also has some unique features like handrails crafted from Louisiana Swamp Cyprus, which is found only in New Orleans. Captain Alan Bernstein and his wife also keep a large portion of their personal river art collection on-board, including two original water-color portraits of Betty Blake and Ben Bernstein, the two ‘B’s’ in BB Riverboats.
The Belle of Cincinnati offers public and private cruises year-round such as lunches and dinners, special events like fireworks cruises, ice cream socials, sightseeing cruises, and various private functions. She is also a regular competitor in riverboat races such as the annual Great Steamboat Race in Louisville, Kentucky.
