The planner works from route data, not live timetables. It shows which boats connect two places and roughly how long they take — always confirm departure times and book directly with the operator.
This leg is part of a longer line and the published fare covers the whole line, so the shorter hop costs less.
Times marked as approximate are worked out from the distance covered on a longer line, not published separately by the operator.
