New fastcraft gets PPA go-signal
BY RENE GENOVE
Sea travel is now made easier and less expensive with a new fast craft plying the Poblacion, Sibulan Port-Liloan Santander route.
The Philippine Ports Authority Regional Office gave the go-signal to put up the necessary structure at the docking area after consultations with the local government unit of Sibulan and the pumpboat operators.
The Rovi fast craft, which can accommodate 72 passengers per trip, travels to and from its approved destination in 15 minutes and at a minimal fare of P35 per passenger.
The operator was given authority by the Maritime Industry Authority to operate for a one-month period from March 14 to April 14. The authority is renewable.
Ceres buses (non-aircon and air-conditioned) wait for the passengers at Liloan docking area.
Temporary schedules are as follows: Monday through Thursday and Saturday 5 a.m. to 9 p.m. and Friday and Sunday - 7:30 a.m. to 9 p.m.*RG
