I'm having a contriversy :wallbash: with one of our writers (tourism) about a hovercraft to Peele Island. Has anyone seen used it and if so does it have a regular schudule?

 

Thanks for your help

Took a ferry over in 2003. If you go be sure to check out the massive Oak tree. I had brother Joonmoon (who is 6'4") and Pops do some tree huggin' for scale. It was over 18' around and close to 60' tall. I had to walk a long way down the road to get the last pic.

A tree 18 ft in diameter would need 10 people to reach all the way around it. You mean 18 feet in circumference, not diameter.

 

We had turkey pie for dinner last night. A coincidence? Hmmmmmmmm.

The Flyer was fast and would ride above the waves but on BIG Erie wave days it had to be slowed downed and could not ride on the Hydrofoils. It would take abut 25 minutes to get to the Island at crusing speeds versus the almost 3 hrs on the Jiiman Ferry. I was on the Flyer once for a memorial to the Island for a friend who passed away on the tragic flight 126 from Pelee Island.
