There was no Maid of the Mist on the river again until 1885. Rowboats provided ferry service until R.F. Carter and Frank LeBlond invested in a new Maid. Launched on June 13 of that year, this boat ventured closer to the Horseshoe Falls than any ever had. Her trips were so successful, the owners built a sister ship in 1892. Although they were really the third and fourth to bear the name, the two boats were christened Maid of the Mist I and II.
