Free bus trip on Skopolos?

I tried to get details on TA but just speculation came back so has anyone here done the ferry trip to Skopolos and got off at Loutraki (glossa)? I'm told if it is a particular ferry they lay on a free bus transfer down to the main town. I'm just wondering if the bus route reasonably scenic and how long it takes. I've looked up the ferry timetables and it looks like you could get an earlier ferry than the normal one (the regular ones, not the cats) and this goes to Loutraki and then there is a bus trip to the main town but you should still end up at the main town earlier than getting the later ferry direct to main skopolos town and (if it is correct) get a free bus ride thrown in. Can then later get the normal ferry back from main town to Skiathos. Sounds like a day out but I've yet to find anyone who's actually done it!
