Ferry Crash Costs PSTA Half Million | Tampa News

Description

A $300K settlement and $200K in legal fees put the Pinellas Suncoast Transit Authority’s tab at nearly half a million after a deadly April ferry collision — 37 injured, one dead — when a private boat slammed into the back of the Clearwater Ferry. The ferry operator avoided criminal charges, paying just $500 for a faulty light, while the boat’s captain faces court this Friday. A sobering reminder of waterway risks and their steep human and financial costs.
