CA Ferry Schedule & Rachael

[theshopper3]

I have done a search & am not having much luck with the above two ???? so I figured I would ask all my friends

1) I know the ferry schedule is different for slow season until the beginning of Nov. We arrive Oct 31 at approx. 2:00 pm & prefer the CA ferry. Is there normally one at 3:00pm in slow season.

2)Am considering booking Rachael for the taxi from the airport to CA from my search it looks like she cahrges $15-$20 to RH, but what would it be to CA.

3) Now I get to see my ticker... WOOO HOO


Thanks

Honestly? I love Rachel, no surprise there, but I would not bother booking her to CA, it is such a quick trip, I would just grab a taxi from the dispatcher and go.

I just found this on TA from StJohn Julie

They are reducing the number of ferry runs starting Aug 22nd until Nov 1st. Here are the times




Leaving Cruz Bay - 9:15 a.m., 11:15 a.m. and 3:45 p.m.


Returning - 11 a.m., 1 p.m. and 5:30 p.m.

Thanks Shopper for asking this: I had wondered the same thing. We are arriving on Sat. Oct. 31st also. Have always used Rachael...LOVE her!!....but were wondering about the reduced schedules also.

Hey Pianogirl, Do you use Rachael to take you to CA or to RH??

I know it is not far to CA but I really hate waiting for the van to fill up would rather get to CA & grab a cold one at Drakes enjoying the view if we hve a few minutes wait.

When do you arrive on the 31ST. There are 4 of us due in arround 1:50.

Can't wait, heck I was just checking out flights for May 2010

Shopper - I think there are a number of forum folks that may be coming in that day (we arrive on the 29th). Maybe you could start a thread with "October 31 arrivals" or something similar in the title, and I bet you could get your own taxi van full of passengers for the ride to CA.

Just a thought...

Looks like you would have to wait for the 5:30 ferry if you want to go out of CA

[theshopper3]

I was thinking there was a ferry around 3:00 out of CA?? I know it can always change just hoping there is one around then if not, we would definatley go out of RH. Just prefer CA.

They just approved a cut in service till Nov.1 The only ferries leaveing CA are 11 am 1 pm and 5:30 pm that is in effect till Nov. 1st It was in the source today

Thanks Waterguy, I guess that decides where we will take the ferry from.

Will definatley be booking Rachael & probably be able to catch the 3:00 out of RH....

WOO HOO will make it to Woody's for happy hour
