Key Points:
- Colin Jost purchased a decommissioned Staten Island Ferry boat for $280,100 in January 2022, a decision met with skepticism from his wife, Scarlett Johansson, who initially responded with a one-word "We?" upon hearing the news.
- Jost bought the 277-foot ferry with former "SNL" co-star Pete Davidson and business partners, despite Davidson joking that they were "very stoned" during the purchase, a claim Jost denied, stating he was sober.
- The couple humorously addressed the ferry purchase in January 2025, with Johansson joking about starting a GoFundMe and Jost defending the investment as a potential source of family income.
- Despite financial losses and challenges in launching the ferry project, Jost remains committed, proposing ideas like turning the ferry into a party venue or a swim club inspired by his childhood experiences in Staten Island.
- Jost acknowledges uncertainty about the project's financial success but remains optimistic about its future, describing it as "going to be fine."
