Our Story

At American Queen Steamboat Company, our guiding principle has always been dedication to our customers through outstanding service from a knowledgeable, enthusiastic team, with top-of-mind safety awareness and a focus on environmental and social responsibility. From our flagship vessel, the American Queen, to the rest of our growing fleet, we are deeply proud of our boats and the amazing journeys they provide.

My lifelong love of sailing led to a bachelor’s degree in marine biology – and later an MBA – from California Polytechnic State University. As director of marine operations for Hornblower Dining Yachts’ fleet of 29 dinner-cruise vessels, I longed to start my own business, and opening Hornblower Marine Services in 1994 gave me a deep sense of accomplishment and personal pride.

That business, now called HMS Global Maritime, has grown over the decades from one employee to more than 860 and we are pleased to have been recognized numerous times for that sustained growth. We were named among Louisville Business First’s Fast 50 and a finalist for its Business of the Year Award for several consecutive years. HMS Global Maritime has also made the Inc. 5000 list a number of times, won a One Southern Indiana ONE Award for Business of the Year, secured various Travvy Awards – most recently 2019 Best River Cruise Line, U.S. – and acquired numerous other accolades, each of which we appreciate and cherish.

Being able to purchase and renovate the American Queen – a true icon of this nation’s rivers – and launch her in April 2012 made this lifelong mariner’s dream a reality. The successive launches of her sisters, the American Empress, American Duchess and, coming in 2020, the American Countess, mean just as much, and the dream continues to flourish through the hard work and dedication of some of the most talented people in the industry.
