Business digest
BUYER SURFACES FOR STEAMBOATS: American Classic Voyages of suburban Fort Lauderdale agreed to sell the Delta Queen and Mississippi Queen steamboats to a Chicago investment firm. Privately held Waveland Investments LLC plans to take over the boats officially next month. The Mississippi Queen stopped operations in October and the Delta Queen followed in January after American Classic Voyages, which was hit hard by a decline in tourism following the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, went to bankruptcy court. The Mississippi Queen is to resume operations May 7 and the Delta Queen will take on passengers Aug. 26.
