Best way to get to the Vinyard from Davis without a car?

Hey Kids,
I was wondering if anyone knew of the best way to get to the Vineyard from Davis? I have a houseguest who doesn't have a car and is trying to get out there some time this week. All ideas appreciated!

Peter Pan to ferry is easy and you can buy the whole ticket (bus+ferry) at once from Peter Pan.
Just a note for when she returns: the ferries go to Oak Bluffs and Vineyard Haven. On the return, apparently it is not uncommon for the Oak Bluffs ferry to leave from Vineyard Haven instead. (it has to do with wind/choppy water I think) There is a bus between the two towns - they're not far apart - but it was really a surprise to have a switch like that happen!

There is a great hostel on the Vineyard; it's a long way to go and not stay overnight! There's so much to see out there!
