Harbor Express

This service has been operated continuously by WTAI since 1996 and, to date, has safely transported more than 2, 500, 000 passengers across Boston Harbor. The service operates the most advanced ferries in the country, the Flying Cloud and Lightning. The vessels are handicap accessible and feature a smooth, high-speed ride by virtue of the catamaran hulls and water jet propulsion system. In 2002, the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority (MBTA) purchased the vessels and the shore side infrastructure. WTAI operates the service under long-term contract with the MBTA.
