Costs for the Hawai`i Superferry are continuing to mount including some the state may have to pay.The Legislature has appropriated $40 million to pay for harbor infrastructure upgrades to accommodate the high-speed interisland vessel.But that limit has been reached.
Additional costs have already hit some $5 million, including more than $1 million for a new mooring system at Kahului Harbor.Another $250,000 to $350,000 will be needed to clear berthing space at Honolulu Harbor for Hawai`i Superferry's second vessel.It's not clear at all who will be footing the bill for those projects.
