Chappy Ferry

Chappy Ferry The Chappaquiddick ferry
(212)

In operation as early as 1807, the Chappy ferry is the oldest business on the waters of Martha’s Vineyard, and quite probably the third or fourth oldest on the Vineyard itself. To learn just about everything there is to know about the ferry -- from the blind man who owned and skippered it for thirty-seven years, to the seaplane that hit it In 1937, to the tragedy at the D**e Bridge, to the crucial

roles it played in JAWS -- look for THE CHAPPY FERRY BOOK (which comes with a short film about the ferry on DVD), available at Island bookstores, by order through your own bookstore, or on Amazon:
