The Galley (kitchen & dining area) on every ferry provides an opportunity to feature locally produced food products enhancing the local economy by supporting local farmers and food processors. (Detect a theme here?) The potential benefit to the ferry served communities remains unrealized as the galleys ride back and forth in all their stainless steel certified kitchen glory serving industrial grade mass produced “food”. That is, when they are open for business at all. The ferry administration must see the galleys solely as a revenue source because they require such a large percentage of the money generated by them. The galleys are paid for, the equipment installed, permits obtained, local food abundantly produced, and talented food artists abound. Let's rethink this budgeting system. Let the locals sell local food. I reckon in the long run ferry ledgers will show a gain. Even if the ledgers do not, the local economy will.
