Here, allow me to sum up the fast ferry’s prospects: fewer passengers, lower revenues, larger debt. It’s time to be honest about it. It’s going to operate at a loss for a long time (possibly forever), stop hiding that fact in the hope no one will notice. If the ferry has some value to the community, the losses can be tolerated, but if not then let it go, now.
