Update: I stopped by to take some pictures of the Aquarama on 6-5. Sadly, the sun was right behind it, so it was too backlit to get anything usable.
It's hard to tell from the picture above, but there is another, larger "tag" on the side of the bridge as well. It seems to read "Hertatak". After taking a few pictures, I spoke to the nice people who owned the boat-rental place that sits at the end of the Aquarama's slip. Come to find out - these aren't tags at all! The owner himself painted these things on the ship in late April. "Hertatak" is supposedly someone's name", but the BF is a mystery. They seemed to believe it had something to do with "Buffalo Fire", but they weren't sure.
They said that they'd also heard just recently that now there are plans to tow the ship up to Canada for some reason, but that's all they know. It seems any hope for turning it into a casino is now dead.

interesting note her bridge wings swing aside, so when she came down the seaway to simplify the tow they swung them back, nimdaywayma had hers cut unceremoniously off

not true..
those are tags from graffiti writers.
under the hertatak (done by buffalo's hert, and atak) they did throw ups across the boat.
they just didn't complete their hertatak and BF by the looks of it.
i heard the graffiti got buffed.. and that they began taking the boat apart.

You wanna change the city back to Buffalo for this one? It would seem more appropriate since it only transited through Trois-Rivieres.
