RE: **Prices subject to change without notice** - BC Ferries & the Sunshine Coast
skook:
Again, a lot of good work putting this thread together. But... what are your conclusions? If you think prices are too high on the SC, the last thing you would want was easier access. The realtors (K. McKenzie for one) want improved (and cheaper) ferry traffic - so they can sell more real estate to commuters and geezers (like me.) So, if they want it, can it be good? My modest suggestions to help speed this along: 1. Increase the fares. 2. Decrease the sailings - ideally to about two a day 3. Remove the free tickets for geezers (Mon. to Thurs.) 4. Encourage self-sufficiency among the remaining residents. Perhaps this would reduce the population to a more reasonable 5000 (instead of the present 30000.) In your missive to Vancouver Price Drop, you said real estate in Gibsons was dead. Apparently that isn't the case as about 7 properties within my vicinity sold in the last 2 weeks. I even saw ole' Kenan a couple of days as he was putting a sold sign on 556 Seaview. He had a grin to put Alice's Cheshire cat to shame. Is this the dead cat bounce? Or does insanity still rule? |
