While it's outside the realm of the type of passenger shipping that we normally cover, we think the launch of Hawaii's ferry service is significant and worth a look.
The Hawaii SuperFerry has set its long-awaited launch date for August 28. The initial routes will be from Honolulu to Kahului (Maui) and Honolulu to Nawiliwili (Kauai).
There are lots of interesting things on the company's website at HawaiiSuperFerry.com.
