Ferry Soon Come?

Well folks, it’s been 104 days since Public Works Commissioner Daryl Smalls said the new ferries would be running within 30 days. We had a sighting last week where they appeared to be doing some sort of trial runs. Well, we have some more news today…

Red Hook I was actually at the ferry dock this morning! See for yourself:

Red Hook I is designated to Varlack Ventures. We tried to reach Mrs. Varlack but she wasn’t in the office this morning. We’ll try again later.

As far as Cruz Bay I is concerned, that ferry is designated to Transportation Services. The woman who answered the phone there said that ferry will not be running soon.

So now that it’s made it to the ferry dock, how long until it starts running…

98 Days and … A Ferry Makes an Appearance!

It’s been 99 days since Public Works Commissioner Daryl Smalls said the new ferries would be operating within 30 days. Well clearly Mr. Smalls is operating on island time…

But we have good news! Look what just made an appearance over near Turner Bay:

You may recall that the last time one of the ferries made an appearance on St. John was on April 9, which happened to be a mere three days before Mr. Smalls got an award. I wonder what he has up his sleeve this time 😉
