This may be a very attractive alternative.  Time will tell.

Seems a bit more expensive than a taxi. 4 people can go from PM to downtown and back for >$20 with tip. Water taxi would cost $32. And probably slower.

Thats true, Crew, for 4 but same price for taxi for one or two, so price would be comparable. Also taxis have been trying it on recently trying to charge all couples $8 one-way, even in a van. 
 

I knew they were trying to get the  water taxi passed again but didn't realize plans were that far ahead. Time will tell what the taxi union comes up with. I know the town businesses have been suffering but I thought that was more due to the new developments opposite Puerta Maya.
