We are coming next week and have the boat for 3 days before our crew arrives. Yippee!! Anyway, they are flying into Beef and we need them to catch the Scrub ferry. We will be docked there waiting with drinks in hand!! They are bringing cooler and luggage and have never been to the Islands. How mad will the cabbie be if they only go as far as Trellis? Any words of wisdom as to tell them about arriving and getting over there. Unfortunately their flight arrives at 4:50 and the ferry leaves at 5:00. So we have told them to chill and get a drink at Trellis (hopefully something will be open) and wait for the 6:00.

The taxi will not have an issue going to Trellis, but as others have mentioned it is very walkable if you have rolling luggage. If the cooler doesn't have wheels they will need a taxi.
I was just at Scrub for a night and I think your idea of being on the dock with a drink is a great idea. You can enjoy your full day at Scrub with the pool, good food, good service, and your guests can arrive in a boat big enough to carry everything comfortably and enjoy their first night in a great location.
Lots of sailors on TTOL like to run around and pick people up in different places and cater to people. I don't have as much experience and that works for some people, but for me it's my vacation too. I'm not running a ferry service so if I want to spend a night or 2 on the dock for my convenience and the crew needs to take a ferry, it seems to work fine for everyone.
Personally, I'd stick with your Scrub plan.
Cheers, Jason

Agreed. Just beware of the chickens and the airport cat... <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Wink.gif" alt="" />

Path to Trellis. Just turn left out of the airport concourse and keep going for 100 yards. Cross the road and you're in the Trellis Bay parking lot. A really easy walk!
Woof woof!
