surfboy you disappoint me! The banka is way cooler than the fast ferry!...the banka is strictly old school and the only way to do it! lol...You go back to before they built that wharf? When it was choppy they had to ferry you out to the banka in little boats. Years ago went over to Sibulan with a GF and they were ferrying the passengers in to shore. She got in the boat ahead of me and they flipped it on the way in to shore. I get in to shore and she is standing there dripping wet and steaming with anger. I am trying not to laugh. The deal is its p10 for the little ferry service and they asked for their p10 from her anyway. Oh lord she lets loose on them, the hell she is paying to be dunked in the ocean, they are all cringing. There is no fury like a dunked pissed off Filipina lol...
