Considering that it's easier to get around P-Town without a car than it is Cape May, I'm not sure if enough people would use a people-only ferry to make it profitable. $69 pp is a lot of money to pay for a day trip or even a weekend trip to the shore. Anything longer than that and you need a car
I remember Cape May being fairly walkable. the price woudl probably have to be half that. Wonder if the prices reflect the cost or the fact that it shaves off so much time (demand). would you take a ferry to cape may? if you woudln't because it's not walkable, would you take a train?
