About
About Russell Island, platform 2
Platform 2 is the way off the island, and unlike the island-hopping boats it sleeps. The mainland run to Redland Bay Marina carries 29 sailings a week over 4.1 nautical miles in 20 minutes, but nothing leaves between 21:45 and 04:30 — while the Lamb Island service alongside it has departures logged from 00:08.
Arrivals are more frequent than departures: 41 boats a week come in from Lamb Island, 1.0 nautical miles off at 7 minutes.
Splitting the island's traffic across two platforms lets the inter-island boats and the mainland run work independently, which matters on a route where a 20 minute passage and a 7 minute one share the same water. Five day patterns cover these services. Russell has thousands of residents, no bridge, and no scheduled alternative to the ferry.
