Re: Hawaii Superferry - Chapter 7
In New Jersey and nearby areas:
Many of the ferries are not car ferries. The Staten Island ferry, while equipped for vehicles, stopped carrying them a while ago, and fast ferries such as Seastreak (which one still, unfortunately, apparently needs a car to get to in NJ, because of a NJ Transit route cancellation between Red Bank and Atlantic Highlands), NY Waterway (accessible via transit), NY Water Taxi (ditto), etc., don't carry cars. There is a Cape May (NJ) - Lewes (Delaware) ferry that carries cars. Anyhow, the ferries in NYC traditionally looked like a two-story vessel with a lot of windows and a mouth for the cars and a chimney, and that look, while improved upon, still serves as a basis for ferries such as the Cape May-Lewes ferry, which is a car ferry. Non-car ferries are nicer looking, with windows in their sides and often sleeker appearances, such as NY Water Taxi.
