I'm sitting in it right now. I think I'll be one of the people on it when it sails to NY too. Just had a spot of down time and did a google search for "new staten island ferry". Was curious to see if our company (which is doing the control/monitoring system) was mentioned in any press. I'm pretty excited about the whole thing, can't wait to get to NY. Never been there.

Today is the last day of the high speed no-cars ferry across the puget sound. A GOP led tax repeal has been gutting the funds for the past three years and this group has targeted the elemination of all public busses in Washington State. It is freaking madness and I am that close to driving to Canada and never coming back

They should keep the old boats and dump the 1980s boats. Those things are hideous.

I hope they have a grand send off for the Kennedy boats, there's nothing better than sitting in the back, saying good bye to Manhattan with a beer and a great view!

How are they going to get it from Wisconsin to NY? Sailing the Great Lakes and Saint Lawrence???
