TAXI!

[xtech]

I was taking a little stroll this morning an i spied these CATS there are 3 of them.

Later I heard on the news that the water taxis had arrived.

Are these the new Water Taxi that was promised so many moons ago?
If they are well they not in good shape and they cant carry cars.











I think we have many more moons to go before we see these Kitties in action.

[Maserati]

I don't think they were ever intended to carry cars..a little paint and they'll look new brand

[Mr. Cheese]

Boats degrade in apparance verry quickly when not cared for.

[antlind]

[xtech]

They look like the size of two buses side by side.

30 mins to SANDO from POS

[tr1ad]

and when they first arrived at pt lisas, they would not even start

[snypaz]

LAWD....PH water taxis just now?

Pirouge?

[r3iXmann]

i predict chaos

[Maserati]

hope there are enough life jackets for that number of passengers and crew.

I dont think they were ever intended to carry cars - the idea is to get ppl to commute into POS to ease traffic congestion - not find a way to get more cars in.

wonder how much it will cost from POS to Sando and vice versa?

[Supazuki]

AGAIN we get tief .... $63M for ah rusty bucket Imbert banking offshore ah wha ?

$15 one way

[gfbl]

that reasonable

[Maserati]

$15 do they expect to turn a profit or just run it for the sake to ease traffic congestion?

[bushwakka]

lol...i dunno one feck abt boats, so to me, dem ting lookin bess.....also whas the pt of carryin cars? flick cars, leff it home an go

[xtech]

$15 do they expect to turn a profit or just run it for the sake to ease traffic congestion?

wat u expect................... we rich nation

[Duane 3NE 2NR]

$15 do they expect to turn a profit or just run it for the sake to ease traffic congestion?

is a public transport service - not meant to turn a profit
supposed to be a service to the ppl - the fees are for upkeep

of course historically we know it will turn to shambles quickly

[xtech]

I think since Bush say we rich.
An Duane say we just need the service dont care if it makes a profit.

I say we return those beat up cats for three brand new 150ft



With a bar an jacuzzi...........to enjoy the ride eh....... would be boring just to sit an look out the window at the industrialized West Coast for the whole trip.

an maybe we can take it of route book it for cruises like what used to happen with the Panorama.

[douglaking]

150x3 = 450
Let's say two trips - 900
So what about the thousands of us who pile the highway everyday?



No wait....i hope alot of people go on the bo..taxis so the highway will be CLEAR

80KMPH *cough* FTW!

[Duane 3NE 2NR]

^ 150x3?

[Maserati]

^ 150x3?

150 passengers and 3 ferries?

[xtech]

if the boats go be heading south empty during morning rush hour it should make better time......

an if all the boats leave the south port at same time

Great race every 30 mins

150 x 3 just so we go have 450 people in town.

divide that by 5 an we get 90 cars of the road

i think these ferries to small to make a dent........

maybe if we had five more an a large ferry to remove some trucks to

$15 one way

but how long does the round trip take?

at 150 persons each... that's 450 persons one way...

but how long will the wait be for the next boat? 30 mins? 60 mins? 90 mins? I think that is what will determine the success of this venture...

so say 600 people show up at 6:00AM... and 150 go then, then 150 at 6:30 (lets say) and then 150 at 7:00... how long do the rest wait for the first boat to come back?

[r3iXmann]

not sure.. Mini

they're going to repaint them in the national colours,apparently

[DF1_2nR]

Ahhh yes..more second rate crap bought with our tax dollars.

Paradise indeed
