Proving once again that it's who you know and not the quality of your work, Austral (maker of what many are calling the experimental Joint High Speed Vessel prototype aka Superferry) was one of 3 firms receiving $3 million in the JHSV design phase.
Superferry is grounded for the sixth day with a cracked auxiliary rudder post - something that is likely caused by design flaws which make the vessel unable to stand up to Hawaii's interisland channels. Alternatively, the Superferry hit a whale without knowing or reporting it.
Superferry customers stranded and unable to get their cars home must not be too happy about Superferry's numerous cancellations. Photos of the Superferry's last wild ride look terrifying.

WE NEED TO APOLOGIZE.
WE HAD IT ALL WRONG.
The Superferry will NOT impact the Environment.
NO, the Environment is impacting the Superferry.
Please, do not laugh.
The State should be doing an EIS to describe all the impacts from Hawaii's devastaing natural environment on the poor Superferry.
And we have yet to have a tsunami.
Judge Cardoza had it right.
If the Superferry were allowed to operate, he said there is a likelihood of "irreparable harm."
...to the Superferry!
