Here we are aboard the Staten Island Ferry which'll take you from that borough to Manhattan and back. It's always a treat to climb aboard especially when you consider that it's FREE!!!!

  • there's no reason to get off at Staten... even if you live there.

  • Actually, I suppose it's a security issue now. Last time I took the trip: Early June, 2007 they stated how everyone was required to leave the boat and then reboard.

  • They've always required passengers to get off the ferry and reboard. Was that way when I was a kid growing up in NYC.

  • Actually I can recall times being able to stay on.

  • I like watching the ferry going to Staten Island

  • @PARIVISION This is TERRIBLE. I was in NYC trying to take pics of a building near Central Park...the biggest most beautiful building in NYC, and was also told I am not allowed to take pictures of the building. It is SICK that we cannot take pictures or videos of public places.

  • That's an average speed of 15 MPH. Considering the size of the ferry and the time it takes to accelerate and slow down, that's pretty good.

  • Umm ... because ferryboats don't go 65 MPH?

  • is the ferry big inside

  • I took the ferry on Friday, and took footage on my digital camcorder. I did the exact same thing you did on the way back, but this time in the dark. Thankfully I wasn't caught by any of the ferry employees.

  • I am a filmmaker from Staten Island. I have been making movies for well over a decade. On August 26, 2007 on board the ferryboat Marchi I was taking footage of the harbor for a movie I am working on. A ferry worker approached me and demanded I shut the camera off. I was told due to Homeland Security rules I was not allowed to tape on the boat and was breaking the law. This is nonsense. In response o that incident I reported that worker to the DOT, 311 and the ACLU.

  • Would you happen to know which ferry this is?
