Bringing a national headline local, two companies that operate duck boats in Wisconsin Dells are facing safety questions after a duck boat capsized in severe weather in Branson, Missouri, killing 17 last week.
Thousands of people go to the Dells every summer for trips operated by Original Wisconsin Ducks and Army Ducks. The general managers of both businesses say their boats are originals from World War Two-different than the ones in Branson, and are safe. In the event of severe weather, passengers can be removed from the boats quickly.
