I agree with the notion that my favorite barge is the one at the dock, has space for my car and will get me to StJ!

By far and because of the top-deck and bar the ROANOKE is my favorite barge… and from my condo-apt. at Serendip I can tell when it comes and goes because of the potted palm trees. GO ROANOKE!

And on January 21st, 2008 you said, “The Roanoke car barge is back after refurbishment in Puerto Rico sporting a new, Rasta-like paint job. This is our favorite barge.” Rest my case.

Well, on April 26, 2007 you said “Vic is our second favorite. It’s slow, but it’s breezy and has a second floor porch. The Roanoke is by far our favorite. “… so I’m gonna go with Roanoke. Favorite.

My favorite barge is the one that gets me to STJ the quickest…whichever one is there first gets my money.

I would give anything for a slow crossing with a beverage today. It’s snowing now in Pennsylvania and we are expecting a ton of snow overnight tonight. Can I trade a white landscape for blue water?

Favorite Barge – definitely the Roanoke! Chilling on the deck with a cold Carib is the perfect way to switch from travel time to island time. Don’t mind the slower crossing time at all.

I was always partial to the Vic crew. When I worked for hospice and travelled between STT and STJ to see terminally ill folks, the Vic and Roanoke allowed us to travel for $1 each way. Very classy. When there was a long line which I never jumped, if they saw me, they would tell folks that I was caring for sick people and made sure that I made it on board. For those who remember Petit Blue…I did that once and it was the scariest ride I ever had. I stayed way up by the rail in case I had to jump!
