I didn't realise quite how bad of a year our ferries have had, this is just embarrassing.

This seems like a key infrastructure issue to sort out. Didn’t realise that we don’t own our ferries!

As Dave said, Interislander is owned by Kiwirail, and they own their boats, to the best of my knowledge. I didn't realise Bluebridge wasn't NZ owned any more.
