New Ferry service from/to Trinidad/Tobago?

Post by Ute »

I have a flight to Trinidad, arriving June 30th and intend to take the ferry to Tobago.
I understand that there is a new catamaran going back and forth on an experimental basis, which only takes 2.5 hrs for the xing , instead of the 5 hrs or so.
I can't find any info though on departure times, where to buy tix , prices or where in Tobago it lands.

HELP?? Please?
Thanks- Ute

Ute,yes there is 'The Cat' that runs between the islands - 2.5hrs is abit optimistic but it is faster than the two conventional ferries.It started as running on a schedule but some times just ran as a shuttle(particularly during carnival).It travels between the normal ferry ports on Trin and Tobago and costs the same.You can get more info from the Port Authoriy in Scarbro'

Thanks David. I've been searching on the web and as best as i can find out is that the 'Cat' is on a 1/2 year lease from Canada, which started in January.
Soo, unless there's been a change...no more 'Cat' by the time i get to Trinidad end June :( , so the choice will be ...slow ferry..or flight..unless you have better info?
