Took the high-speed ferry last summer to Nantucket with family and thought it was very nice. Ferry is spacious and clean and even has a decent food/drink court. Several different options for ferry times made it easy to find a conveniently timed departure and return. Will take the ferry again.... More

As a regular commuter book purchaser and owner I am always very satisfied with every trip to and from Nantucket aboard Hy Line's high speed ferry service. It is refreshing to see professional and friendly staff from the ticket offices to onboard workers. Very comfortable seating making the crossing relaxing. Downtown Hyannis to Downtown Nantucket in just about an hour!... More

Every year we go to the Cape and in 2011, we almost didn't make it because we were so busy. However, after doing a little research, I discovered we could do a day trip to Nantucket using the High Speed Ferry. It was very comfortable, fast and efficient. It was clean and felt more like you were in a nice... More

We took the "captains choice" trip. {just me and my 10 year old son} The crew was there for all our needs. Parking is close and safe. My young son was ecstatic with the adventure. Got one biggie! Very well worth the time and money. We know fishing has its good days and not so good days as there were... More

We had an unbelievably great experience with Hy-Line Cruises. The reservations staff was exceptional! We were able to change our reservations on 3 of the 4 trips that we took with absolutely no difficulty....or penalty! The hi-speed boats not only run on time, but offer an exceptionally smooth ride. Long term parking is available close by. You can transport your... More

We used to Take the traditional ferry to the Islands. The past two times, we decided on the fast ferry. We all loved it, and it was far better for the 8 and 12 year old family members. The staff was friendly and let me board ahead, because of knee problems. It seemed like we arrived so quickly, and when... More

To compensate they put us into the first class section, it... More
