How to best get from Hilo to Molokai for weekend?

[Justin]

We'd like to get out to Molokai some weekend, as we've never been. Looking at the Hawaiian Airlines schedule, however, it doesn't look very easy to get from Hilo to Molokai for just 2-3 days, as there aren't a ton of flights to Molokai and a lot of them are at the same time as the flights to Hilo, so there aren't many timely connections.

I was wondering if Mokulele or someone might be better, or whether it's easier to go to Maui and take the ferry, or maybe some other idea I haven't even contemplated. In a perfect world, I'd leave about mid-day on Friday and come back Sunday evening. In this world, however, I'll take anything close to that.

Thanks in advance!
