Businesses on Lanai faced a shortage of produce and goods after weather delayed a regularly scheduled Young Brothers barge last Wednesday and a “recovery barge” from Honolulu to Lanai days later.

Pine Isle Market ran out of milk, and the Blue Ginger Cafe shut down its dinner service as a Young Brothers barge did not arrive as expected last week due to inclement weather and rough seas.
A “recovery barge” to make up for the lost trip last Wednesday also didn’t arrive on Lanai several days later as the weather forecast throughout the weekend indicated high surge and strong swells, Young Brothers said Monday.
