Portland -
A lot of Maine lobster has been loaded onto a cruise ship visiting Portland Harbor.
The Celebrity Summit took delivery of the lobsters from Ready Lobster.
Celebrity Cruises has agreed to buy a total of 3,800 pounds of Maine lobster this year when it visits our state.
Norwegian Cruise Lines will buy another 5,000 pounds when its ships call on Portland this fall.
It's good timing for Maine's lobster industry which has seen rock-bottom prices this summer because of too much supply.
