  1. 1. Would you ride the Superferry?

    • Sure, safer than a jeepney!

Took a super ferry from CDO to Bohol and back...not too bad going to Bohol, but on return trip was higher seas and one of the diesel engines broke down and a 7hr. trip turned into a 12 hr. trip. The ferry was rockin and rollin pretty good and a couple times everyone was pretty concerned. I don't care how good one can swim..if that thing would have rolled on it's side miles away from any shoreline..there would have been many causalties and or fatalities in rough seas. Many times the ferry's are overloaded and put out to sea when the weather conditions are hap hazard..I don't know if I would ferry longer distances again..but shorter runs like CDO to Camiguin probably safer. ;)

I'd rather take my chances on the supers than those little boats that run back and forth to Camiguin. I wouldn't be at all surprised to hear that any one of those sunk :unsure:
