Re: Love City Car Barge Online Reservation?

Especially as police were called yesterday to break up a fight at the dock ! And totally different scenario at the "skip the line" in Europe (have used it myself) - everyone in line (at least 90% of them) are "tourists" not a local trying to do business/shop/get to the hospital f...

Re: Love City Car Barge Online Reservation?

You would have a riot on your hands if you pulled up and went to the front - if that worked everyone who has been waiting for 5+ hours would just go online on their phone and make a reservation.

Re: Latest Car Barge News

It changes by the hour at times never mind weeks ahead - just no way of knowing - I know the wait from STT to STJ was 2.5 hours yesterday at times as I had a meeting in the office with a rep that arrived at the dock at 11am and arrived to my office at 2:25pm !!!

Re: Zika

No cases reported (yet) on St John. Unless you are pregnant or planning to get pregnant (imo) no worries but again just my opinion

Re: weather next week

Yep - however when www.weather.com (or any other weather site) predicts 50% chance of rain what that means is there is a 50% chance that it will rain somewhere in the 166 square mile area of the US Virgin Islands (and that rain can be as little as a 1 minute shower) and what it does not mean is it w...

Re: Car Barge Update

Interesting - I still stand by the fact no one is going to get off the ferry once on if you pull up 5 minutes to departure and they are full - I can only assume they save 1 car spot (or however many have a reservation) but in 10 years and going over to STT one or two time a month I have never seen t...

Re: Sunset sail with snorkel

Good morning - yes Kekoa does/did ! We just decided to remove this from our trips HOWEVER if one is on the schedule it will remain on the schedule - let me know you dates - we do have one on the 18th and 24th of May and as far as I know we are/were the only boat doing this (but could be wrong)

Re: 8:00 ferry for a 12:30 flight?

Hi there - no Delta does not have the 3 hour rule but depending when in July I would probably be on the 10am (if it is mid week after Carnival then I would allow more time) at the latest - getting to STT by 10:30am, to the airport by 11:15am - time to check the car back so at the counter by 11:45am ...

Re: Share Charter in September and other September Questions

Kekoa is out of the water until September 21st for dry dock (most boats are hauled out at that time of year so I would start calling around to see who is in or out) I run the office at Kekoa - please email me if you have any questions or if you wish to book.
