Frequently asked questions
Because an island people must never be cut off from their own sea road.
Montserrat Ferry Services Ltd is a maritime transport and logistics company established to meet the growing demand for safe, reliable, and high-quality sea transportation for Montserrat and the wider Eastern Caribbean. MFS is a privately incorporated company that will periodically issue shares through private placements, under an equity structure designed to support stable governance, local accountability, and long-term strategic direction.
We are working toward securing a Montserrat-owned and operated ferry vessel, giving the island greater control over this essential service. Post the Soufriere Hills Volcano, 1995, sea travel has been Montserrat’s lifeline, and ownership ensures decisions are made with Montserrat’s needs first.
The service is currently in the planning, approvals, and procurement stage. Once confirmed, the official start date will be published on our website, with a target of Summer 2026, recognising the importance of doing this properly and sustainably.
Montserrat Ferry Services Ltd will operate under a formal corporate governance structure, including a Board of Directors, shareholder oversight, and regular financial reporting. This structure is designed to ensure transparency, responsible decision-making, and long-term stewardship of an essential national service.
Montserrat has experienced the consequences of relying on external operators for critical services. This investment reflects a long-held belief that essential connections should not depend on outside priorities but be secured locally for continuity and resilience.
The Montserrat–Antigua route will remain the core service, reflecting historic travel and trade patterns. Additional routes to other Leeward Islands are anticipated as demand allows, strengthening regional ties that Montserrat has long relied on. The wish list includes; St Kitts & Nevis, Guadeloupe, St Maarten and Dominica
The planned crossing time between Montserrat and Antigua is approximately 1 hour, depending on sea and weather conditions. This reflects realistic Caribbean maritime conditions familiar to regional travellers.
Once finalised with shareholders, the primary vessel is expected to carry 250+ passengers, balancing safety, comfort, and the volume required to keep the service viable for the community.
While the focus is on a primary vessel, fleet flexibility is under consideration. This reflects a practical, island-minded approach to managing peak and off-peak travel demands responsibly. Some ideas already include expanding to day tours and tug boat service.
An online booking system is being developed to allow advance reservations and payment. Vessel schedules will be open at least 3 months in advance, to allow for early bookings and reservation.
