Millions of dollars in business was wiped out by government shutdown orders due to Covid-19. Then hundreds of thousands had to be spent to comply with new regulations. Boats that are able to operate carry a fraction of their capacity. Eighty percent of the workforce has been furloughed or laid off. Owners aren't getting paid. Inspections have been delayed. And the wait for more relief from Washington seemed interminable. The severe damage Covid-19 caused robbed the passenger vessel industry of what would have been another good year. It wasn't. But operators are resolute and planning for a 2021 that may at least get them to break-even. |
