HI Superferry: Tip for the next few days

Noticed that now that the trade winds have returned that for the next few days if any passenger vessels go north through the Pailolo channel (25 kn wind and 9 ft wind waves) the seastate will be:

Beaufort Force 6, BOM 4, Likely seasickness among many passengers,

But if they go through the Kaiwi channel only (20 kn wind and 7-8 ft wind waves) the seastate will be:

Beaufort Force 5, BOM 3, Somewhat likely seasickness among passengers.

Will get an analysis of the financial requirements of MARAD up soon.

Aloha, Brad
