Social distancing sense demands that it transport 500 pax until the threat is declared gone.

Of course the designs would be different because their functionalities are different. You cannot compare a vessel to do the 400 meters of the Likoni channel with a vessel for these routes (below). Although they are called ferries they are actually ocean-going vessels.
