St. Barts Ferry
"The barge she sat in, like a burnished throne,
Burned on the water: the poop was beaten gold;
Purple the sails, and so perfumed that
The winds were lovesick with them; the oars were silver,
Which to the tune of flutes kept stroke, and made
The water which they beat to follow faster,
As amorous of their strokes"
William Shakespeare,
The bard imagined Cleopatra's boarding on a boat in the above way.
