text: "Routes over the ocean, Kalber said, were “not financially feasible for those guys … It takes too long to get there and it uses too much gas.”   Are you kidding me?  These expenses are going to be passed on to the tourist using this service.  Make the trip part of the experience.  I sense here that the companies are really trying to shorten the trips to get more trips in per day.  I hope they make a profit.  BUT... if they make a profit at the expense of the well-being of the folk on the ground, then they either need to share that profit with them, or go elsewhere.
