Nobody who has ever worked in the Gulf refers to it as a "ferry" boat.  It's a crew boat.  And no oil company worker is EVER in a hurry to get offshore although the reverse is absolutely true and they will lie through their teeth to get you to come out.  "I've got 93 million miles of visibility!"  Yeah, straight up at the sun but nothing laterally and you can't even see Bravo platform."
