The Hawaii Superferry’s two vessels are being moved to a Norfolk, Va., shipyard under the custody of the U.S. Maritime Administration.

Court records show that Hawaii Superferry owes the Maritime Administration, the bankrupt company’s main creditor, $136.8 million. Mobile (Ala.)-based Austal, which built both ferries under a $190 million contract, is owed $22.9 million.
The Maritime Administration has said it plans to repossess and sell the vessels.
Maritime Administration spokeswoman Susan Clark couldn’t say whether the Navy plans to look at the ferries while they’re stationed in Norfolk.
Defense Secretary Robert Gates has said the military wants to lease two high-speed ferries to fill the gap before the first of 10 transport vessels are completed starting in 2011.
Superferry's two catamarans have been docked in Mobile since ceasing service in Hawaii.
