From the January 7, 2022, Forbes "Hawaii: Boat tours to the Arizona Memorial are back... but for how long?" by Will McGough.
Boat tours were canceled for nearly a month, but are back again. The closure this time stemmed from on-going issues with the dock that attaches to the Memorial, making it unsafe for boats to dock and unload.
In 2018, a same-but-different problem with the dock resulted in the Arizona being closed for fifteen months, much to the dismay of the thousands of people who visit Pearl Harbor each day. The boat went out, but just passed by.
Plans are to replace the dock completely later this year at which time the Memorial will be closed again.
