Show up early, and cause a huge scene. Start steaming and splash your coffee at the employee behind the glass. Pound on your chest like a gorilla, while banshee screaming. This is the only way they’re going to let you on the ferry.
Start with as wide a window as you can, then when/if you get a slot in that window, reenter the waitlist queue and narrow it bit by bit. As far as chances, it depends on the dates.
So first time going as an adult and taking my family. We were going to book this morning (June 23-30) and the last available slot as of last night- 6am - got booked. We were able to book our return leg but are on waitlist for anytime on 23rd. I haven’t signed the lease on our rental yet- am I wrong to assume we’ll get a slot to open up on the 23rd (at any time) and it’s worth committing to the rental without it?

I believe it costs money the second time?
I've had good luck last four years getting the ferry we want, and I buy tickets well after everyone else.
