Celebrating the Day of the Women

Kriola celebrated the day of the women on Sunday, March 28, 2011. CVFF had a special guest on the boat to help us celebrate this wonderful day. Michel and guest stepped on the boat and entertained Kriola with beautiful songs on our trip from Fogo to Praia and Praia to Fogo. Director Geral Sean Pond joined in for a coupel of songs in Praia. Enjoy the video. Thank you Michel and guest. We hope you will join us again.

The Praia Ramp Is Complete!!!

After a couple months of hard work the Praia ramp is complete and ready to move roll on/ roll off cargo. The ramp will allow cars and trucks, motorcyles, containers, and other heavy cargo to be transported between Praia, Fogo, and Brava on the Kriola; opening up transporation between the islands.

This is a picture of the first piece of heavy cargo that was lifted onto the boat.

Local Artist Donates One of a Kind!

A local Brava artist, Eujenio Tavares, donated a one of a kind piece of art to Cabo Verde Fast Ferry. The artwork is a piece of wood that is hand carved. The detail in the piece of art is amazing. This picture does not do it justice. It is now in our main office in Cha de Areia, Praia, Santiago. Thank you Eujenio.

CVFF Gives Toys to the Children of Brava

School Children Visit Kriola

The children stepped off the bus one by one each with a smile on their face. These children came from the interior of Santiago to visit Porto de Praia and learn about the things that go on at the port and how they function. As an added bonus the children came down to see the Kriola. These children, let alone the country, have never seen a boat like this before. It is a first in Cape Verde. It is the newest, fastest, and best boat and it is only for Cape Verde. As a surprise we allowed the children to come aboard the Kriola and see the inside of the boat. We showed them the passenger cabin and car decks. Here a picture after the school just got off the boat. Thank you for coming to visit us and come back soon!
