Colin Jost and Pete Davidson\u2019s dreams of turning the Staten Island Ferry in New York City into a money-making machine are still afloat.<\/p>\n

New plans for the vessel \u2014 now dubbed Titanic 2 \u2014 were unveiled on Dec. 16. In addition to featuring numerous bars and restaurants, the ferry will also boast a theater on its former parking platform, and the boat will be accessible 24\/7 as it\u2019s tugged back and forth between Staten Island and Manhattan.<\/p>\n

The Saturday Night Live funnymen famously purchased the ferry in 2021 for $280,100, but it\u2019s proved to be a money pit ever since, sources say.<\/p>\n
