[Healeys] Conclave Wolfe Island ferry

[tomfelts at windstream.net]

Finally something I can chime in on.  I've taken my BJ8 on the Block Island Ferry, The Put-in-Bay Ferry and the Jamestown Ferry.  By far the most difficult was the Block Island one, and THEY wanted to drive it on/off.  No way, say's I---fortunately.  I had to snake it very carefully and still scraped a little.  They were VERY unhappy with me, but---that's the way it is.

I've also had my Healey shipped to Europe and back on a large car hauling ship; driven on by them.  No damage.

Size up the access ramp to the ferry and drive on accordingly.
