Oh, for heaven's sake. Go to Vancouver. Pay a very reasonable price. Get on the ferry. Take your dog. Take your car. Dine en route if you wish. It is really simple.
The only complication for Hawaii is rougher waters and coquis and fire ants. This island is toxic to other islands because Hawaii doesn't believe in protecting the aina except as a matter of high minded philosophy that doesn't translate into dollars for agricultural inspectors and eradication of invasive species.
So, that problem would need to be addressed. But ferries would be good for tourism and residents alike. Not having them is ridiculous and further evidence of a cynical refusal to do anything that resembles collective action to improve our infrastructure.
