I'm not sure where you're getting this. There are no inter-island ferries anymore in Hawaii, except for the short tourist hops from Maui to Lanai and Molokai. Much longer trips between the big island, Maui and Oahu were possible for a couple years up until 2009 on the Superferry, but it closed after years of legal wrangling over environmental issues.
- pinot 3y agoBig Island never got superferry. Back in the 70s there was Seaflite on Boeing hydroplanes that was short lived as well.
- johnwalkr 3y agoNot sure why the Boeing 929 was a failure in so many places, but you can still ride them in Japan and Hong Kong. The experience is fun --they are fast, security is light and the vessels are retro-futuristic. I rode one from Tokyo to Izu-Oshima and it was 1:45 vs 6:00 for the normal ferry.
