Checked facts
The harbor on the list
Hawaii DOT names Kahului Harbor as a Maui District harbor, with Kaunakakai, Kaumalapau, and Hana also in that district. Those other three are not on Maui. The Maui District office address on the harbors site is 101 E. Kaahumanu Avenue, Suite 100, Kahului. Confirm the harbor the ship uses. The page for this terminal is Port of Kahului. Honolulu Harbor is in the Oahu District on the same FAQ, not in the Maui District. The plan has no Kahului city-route rows.
The state inflow is ocean
According to Census migration data, ACS 2024 estimates that 10,516 people now in Hawaii had lived in California a year earlier (margin of error 2,445), and 5,174 had lived in Texas (margin of error 2,026). The plan leaves miles blank and says these are not a truck formula. California to Hawaii is the largest inflow. Registration is county by county on the Hawaii page.
A Honolulu discharge is still Oahu
Honolulu Harbor is an Oahu District harbor on the same state list. Landing there does not put the car in Kahului. Book the Maui harbor if the address is on Maui. Kaunakakai, Kaumalapau, and Hana are in the Maui District list and are not on the island of Maui. The plan leaves miles blank on Hawaii lanes because they are ocean, not a truck formula.
