As we mark 40 years of Smith’s Ferry Services, we do so intentionally on the heavenly birthday of our founder, Capt. Ira L. Smith—because this journey would not exist without him.

From building boats as a young boy alongside his father to founding Smith’s Ferry Services in 1986, his vision took shape with the launch of our first vessel, the MV Marie Elise—a defining step that laid the foundation for the company we are today.

For four decades, Smith’s Ferry has been more than transportation. We’ve connected the U.S. and British Virgin Islands, brought families together, supported businesses, and created opportunity across our region. Proudly locally owned and operated, we continue to carry forward a legacy rooted in purpose, family, and community.

To celebrate this milestone, we’re launching our 40th anniversary promotion:

$40 to go | $40 to return
Tortola ↔ St. Thomas
April 18 – May 18, 2026

Available at Smith’s Ferry ticket counters only. Open to USVI and BVI residents.

Join us as we celebrate 40 years of connection, community, and Caribbean pride.

Here’s to legacy—and to the journeys that continue.
