It's new to Hawaii and it's a ferry that can go from Oahu to Kauai and Maui. Basically those who are opposed to it say it will increase the amount of traffic and people on the other islands and possibly lead to over-development then there were further problems with some regulations then one thing led to another and it's been going on for the past 2 months.
I heard it was mentioned some time over on the mainland when this first started and I didn't know if it was still going on.

Ahh, that rings a little tiny bell in my head. :) Thanks for explaining sir, I appreciate it!!!! I hope that things get taken care of for that...my momma used to live on Maui, and they had problems like that even then, so hopefully this time around they can figure out what to do.

Don't they have a 'forbidden' island there?? I remember hearing something about an island that foreigners aren't allowed onto....Or something like that.....? Hehe, sorry to bother~~

Yep, the "forbidden" island is true. You either need a special reservation or an invitation to even go onto the island. They even continue to speak Hawaiian.
