The new taxi will be available Friday night if there is a large enough crowd to need it. Otherwise, it will begin service Saturday morning.

Now there are two taxis with 100-passenger capacity, one taxi with 60-passenger capacity and one taxi with 50-passenger capacity. That's double the capacity from last year.

The first boat is scheduled to leave at 9 a.m. Saturday.

Tickets are $5 each way for Florida-Georgia weekend.
