Parking continues to be horrendous along the waterfront. Please leave a generous amount of time to unload and park or you will miss the boat both figuratively and literally,

For the 2025 season we once again welcome back the Lucky Catch captain and crew, who will be running the ferry service again this summer. We appreciate having the crew as part of our community, and us in theirs.

If you have a group of more than eight people planning to ride the ferry to Cushings, please let both the captain and Danny (our caretaker) know ahead of time. To try to avoid any overcrowding issues, we will be using sign-up sheets on busy weekends.
