From one angle, the famed ferry\u2019s orange paint has faded into a faint pink after sitting unattended on the salty waters in the hot sun.<\/p>\n
A look at Pete<\/a> and Colin\u2019s ship\u2019s sides shows massive rusting, as well as what appears to be saltwater stains under the windows.<\/p>\n On the other side of the New York City Department of Transportation\u2019s decommissioned ship<\/a> appear to be a red paint job, which was partially covered by tarps.<\/p>\n \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tRead More Pete Davidson Ferry\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t SINKING SHIP<\/p>\n Pete Davidson & Colin Jost’s ferry restaurant plans delayed again during feud<\/p>\n \t\t\t\t\t<\/a> \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t ALL ABOARD?<\/p>\n Scarlett pleas for fans to help husband Colin after ferry fiasco with Pete<\/p>\n \t\t\t\t\t<\/a><\/p>\n Not only are the comedians forking over massive docking fees for the boat that they hoped to transform<\/a>, they also have unpaid legal bills, according to a lawsuit filed against their company, Titanic 2, in New York.<\/p>\n The suit alleged there is an outstanding bill owed to the law firm Nicoletti, Hornig, Namazi, Eckert & Sheehan for $13,500.<\/p>\n The ship hasn\u2019t been seen publicly since it was used for the Tommy Hilfiger show for New York Fashion Week in September of last year.\u00a0<\/p>\n In a video posted to the fashion house\u2019s Instagram, the ferry was wrapped in their iconic red, white and blue logo, as it sat in New York\u2019s harbor in front of the Statue of Liberty.\u00a0<\/p>\n Once the massive cloak was removed, the M.V. John F. Kennedy ferry looked pristine, with a fresh orange paint job with the iconic Staten Island Ferry written on the side in the DOT\u2019s vintage font.<\/p>\n The ship looks far worse for wear today, as the comedians\u2019 aspirations for the passenger barge<\/a> seem to drift further out of reach.\u00a0<\/p>\n In an interview in December 2024, Pete laid out his extensive vision for the vessel.<\/p>\n \u201cWe do have, believe it or not, an in-depth plan,\u201d Pete told The Wall Street Journal<\/a> at the time. \u201cEvery day I get asked about this f***ing boat, and we\u2019re raising the funds.<\/p>\n The ferry has faded from its vibrant orange to a pale pink as it sits abandoned in a New York harborCredit: Abesea Images for The U.S. Sun<\/p>\n The massive vessel has not been seen publicly since 2024Credit: Abesea Images for The U.S. Sun<\/p>\n The ferry was last seen publicly during NYFW in 2024, when Tommy Hilfiger unveiled it as the location for its show, and the ship at that point was its original, vibrant orange and blueCredit: Instagram\/tommyhilfiger<\/p>\n \u201cWe\u2019re going to do a floor at a time. There\u2019s a full plan in motion, and meanwhile, people are renting it out.\u201d<\/p>\n The ferry was hired out for Tommy Hilfiger\u2019s fashion show.<\/p>\n While Colin attended the event, Pete did not.<\/p>\n The vessel also served as the set for a horror film, Steamboat Willie.<\/p>\n The ship\u2019s renovation has experienced numerous setbacks over the last three years.<\/p>\n FRIENDSHIP OVER<\/p>\n Once close friends and SNL cast mates, Pete and Colin\u2019s relationship ended in 2024<\/a> amid Pete\u2019s personal struggles.\u00a0<\/p>\n \u201cSomething big happened and Colin is now refusing to be in the same building, let alone the same room as Pete,\u201d an insider exclusively told The U.S. Sun.<\/p>\n \u201cColin doesn\u2019t want to be associated with Pete.\u201d<\/p>\n The pair shook hands when Pete made a cameo on SNL in November, though the interaction appeared tense<\/a>.<\/p>\n Pete seemed to reference his rumored feud with Colin<\/a> when speaking about his friend and fellow comedian, John Mulaney, as well as the few friends who have stood by him.<\/p>\n \u201cI watched him as he took it on the chin a couple of years ago and had to completely revamp his life,\u201d Pete said in the WSJ interview.<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019m kind of in the midst of that now, and he\u2019s been helping me so much. It was so inspiring to watch him beat his addiction, become an even bigger comedian, go on an arena tour, start a family. He\u2019s so happy now and it looks effortless, but it\u2019s not.<\/p>\n \u201cAnd I\u2019ve got to say, he\u2019s always had my back and he\u2019s always there, and not a lot of people are for me. I would say it\u2019s just him, Lorne [Michaels] and Machine Gun Kelly.\u201d<\/p>\n SHIP HAS SAILED<\/p>\n Back in March of 2024, architect Ron Castellano discussed the seemingly ever more distant vision<\/a> for the ship in an interview with Curbed<\/a>.<\/p>\n \u201cIt\u2019s going to have a lot of things. I think right now, we have six bars and two venues operated separately or combined.<\/p>\n \u201cWe have outdoor event space, we have restaurants\u2014two restaurants.<\/p>\n \u201cIt\u2019s a big boat, almost 300 feet long, 65,000 square feet.\u201d<\/p>\n \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t FOOD HACK<\/p>\n I tried the kiosk trick at McDonald’s and got 4 bags of free food – and it’s real<\/p>\n![](\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/SC-Pete-Colin-Ferry-Comp-copy.jpg\"\/)
