SSA Resumes High-Speed Ferry Service April 10

The Steamship Authority recently released the following announcement regarding the restart of its high speed ferry service:

WELCOME BACK TO SERVICE - M/V IYANOUGH

Our high-speed passenger ferry, the M/V Iyanough, will be returning to serve the 26 mile route between Hyannis and Nantucket beginning April 10, 2013 through December 31, 2013. Reservations for the high-speed ferry can be made online at http://www.SteamshipAuthority.com or by calling (508) 495-FAST (3278).

This state-of-the-art vessel also boasts the latest in passenger comfort and amenities, including free Wi-Fi access (standard on all Steamship Authority’s vessels and at all terminals). You’ll also enjoy flat-panel LCD TVs throughout the ship, a snack bar featuring beer, wine and mixed drinks, as well as a variety of hot and cold menu items. The main passenger deck of the M/V Iyanough is fully accessible, including the rest rooms and snack bar. Access to the M/V Iyanough’s main passenger deck is by the transfer bridge that is used to board all passengers onto the ferry.

We will be celebrating the M/V Iyanough’s return to service April 10, 2013 with a “Welcome Back” celebration. Everyone who travels on board the M/V Iyanough will enjoy free food and have a chance to win a round-trip ticket for two on our high-speed ferry. Consider a trip to Nantucket on Wednesday, April 10th to join in on the fun.
