So for those who think the west coast is too far from Adelaide; which im inclined to agree with, there is a ferry between Wallaroo and Lucky Bay (Cowell) which still puts you 1.5 hours drive to Lincoln. I think the initiative of the ferry was to help reduce the amount of trucks on the road. The time youd save driving and fuel costs are sucked up by the cost to use it and its waiting time to get on so the biggest upside is less fatigue and an experience.

That is a lot more expensive than what it was about 15yrs ago when I went on it. You'd have to be sh!tting cash like a sewer to think this is worth it.
I think I will be taking the long way around next time, stay in Whyalla overnight with family then continue my journey to Pt Lincoln from there.
