I know I have read this before and I'm sure it has been discussed many times ... I need to know the best route for getting out of Spanish Town on a Sunday morning to get to Tortola and eventually on to St Thomas to catch 3:00 flight.
Thanks all!

Life involves risks, take some prudent ones (NOT with the BVI ferries)!

Speedy's is the best, without a doubt and the most reliable. We had our boat at VGYH and they never disappointed.They even have a couple of non stop STT-VG.

We have found Speedy's and KC's JVD ferries to both be very reliable..the others..not so much ( understatement)

All, yes I realize for the most part the ferry scheds are unreliable, however I was curious as to whether Speedy's were any better than the rest ... to which I did receive answers to - Thanks!
And sail2wind, I appreciate the heads up on the direct VG to St. Thomas .. I believe that will work well for us.
Cheers!

Speedy's is almost always on time and very reliable. They have multiple boats so if one is down there are others to fill in. Very well run and reliable ferry service.

Speedy's and the North Sound Express are actually quite good about keeping to their schedules.

I apologize, no due diligence on my part and no prior personal experience with Speedy's. It was the words ferry and punctual used in the same sentence I found humorous. I'm laughing as I type this!
