Pictures in today's Daily News. They took some passengers out on test runs. The seats look better than most airline coach seats! They anticipate starting service Aug 1, 2016!

Friday afternoon I phoned a friend and he happened to be on the ferry. Said they were approaching Ham's Bluff and the ride was smooth. (tu)

Anyone know if the ferry will be docking at Gallows Bay when it starts regular service?

Yes, as well as the latest in designer harnesses packed with inflatable one-man dinghies which automatically inflate in the event the vessel sinks.
