I shot this while we were walking around late yesterday afternoon. Those tall pilings you see on either end of the boat - yeah, those are the pilings for the ferry. To give you an idea of how close these boats are slipped to the ferry, if the ferry isn't in, this boat is driven between those pilings to make an easier approach to the dock.
This is a perfect whale watch boat, purposefully designed; a comfortable cabin interior for guests, and plenty of outside seating/viewing as well. Nice enclosed pilothouse. More passenger capacity than the other boat. Even a kid's area inside the cabin, with kids' books and educational toys. The smaller of the two boats is considered "the adults" boat, unless it is booked for a private charter.
Both boats run the same cruise speed. Today is another work day for me; this will be the opportunity to see how we run both boats together. It's looking to be another beautiful day, with clear blue sky and nice temps. Less wind than yesterday (and yesterday wasn't bad), probably a couple degrees cooler.
Here is a shot I took last January when were were here, showing both boats (yes, a lot closer to the bigger boat).
Heading off to work...
