Some ferry service somewhere can use them, let's just take the losses, suck it up, and build ships designed for Alaska waters. Proven designs. We have to be conservative here. The AMHS is too valuable to SouthEast to spend sinful scads of money for ships that remain tied up to the bullrail. Next up will be hover craft,
eh? Why not? They can cross the English Channel with boring regularity.
Of course fuel consumption is terrible, and those roaring turbines
coming into port at 0214 hours would probably tick a few folks
off, but you know something...they would be running. About: "Ketchikan resident, always looking for small government" and do not necessarily reflect the opinions of Sitnews.
